Presentation
This is the credo according to which the self-taught artist John Tonic has been working in his small studio in Dresden for over two years.
His artistic claim is the aesthetic symbiosis of rough, partly chaotic structures with unusual, mostly very intensive colour combinations and new materials, which have not been used in this way before. This enables him to create 3-dimensional symphonic layers and textures with a high degree of depth by hand on canvas.
After completing the work „a lil bit of binary rudeness“ – which he considers the birth of his creative work – in early 2021, the artist decided to make his art accessible to a wide audience and published his creative work on social media. Only three months later, he signed his first contract with a German gallery.
