Jon is a 46-year-old professional artist originally from Britain, he was initially trained as an architect at the Bartlett School of Architecture in London. After extensive travels Jon now operates his workshop in the South, where he continues to produce innovative and captivating works of sculpture, light art, illustration, and kinetic art.
Driven by a youthful fascination with the industrialized world and a deep passion for nature, my work aims to blur the boundaries between these realms.
“ I sculpt and paint Earth’s contradictions.“
