Texture, sharp, jagged, rough, coarse terrain. A pale muted lichen-like shade covers the majority. Crackling beneath the surface is a deeper shade of green and black. A hint of lime nearly spot-on in the center. Below is a block of black sculpted paint that sits at the base of the painting. The top right corner holds a sphere of pale pink spray paint, glistening like a wet Sun. We all have secret parts of ourselves; we keep tucked away from the world. We all have our reasons; we all have our freedom to stay inside our cages. Seasons come, seasons go, still, the secrets buried below the surface. Fertilizing the soil, what becomes are the blossoms of the following season. The flowers wilt and dry as the late Summer sun burns hot; their petals, like skin over bone, dries fast, then turns back to stone.

United States
Justin W John (he/him) American (b. 1981) Justin W John is an abstract artist whose practice focuses on physical painting and digital media art. His work addresses identity, the subconscious, gender and sexuality, culture, and societal ties to technology through autobiographical ruminations. He works intuitively, allowing each piece to develop its personality. Justin’s work bridges internal and external, translating non-physical states into gestural forms, patterns, and markings through his meticulous brush and knife strokes. His introspective narratives act as commentary that speaks to our commonality. Justin W John was born in the Philippines and raised in Virginia and Maryland. He graduated from Maryland Institute, College of Art, in 2003 with a BFA in graphic design. Justin’s work has been in solo exhibitions, group exhibitions, and art fairs throughout the western United States, including Yellowstone Art Museum and The Other Art Fair. Justin was recently selected as a recipient of studio space—part of Surel’s Place Studios in the Live-Work-Create district of Garden City for the 2022-23 season. Justin has also created commissioned public art for the city of Boise, ID.
