Artist
Part of events on ArtRabbit in: London
Jon is a multi-media visual artist with a diverse skill set ranging from printing to video installations. He is interested in using technology for art making. Jon has a passion for things which could be described as techno-fossils, obsolete objects that have now become a hidden or forgotten part of the fabric of the urban or rural landscape. His practice, a form of technological archaeology bringing together research and making. He uses his technological knowledge, arising from a prior career in engineering, to investigate these techno-fossils and make artistic pieces based on his findings. This allows him to produce works which have a unique perspective of places or objects. Aesthetically, Jon usually refers to modes of display or methods of information presentation which are redolent of the practice of engineering, for example laser scanning, CAD drawings and technological site processes.
