John Bell

Being a prolific and multi-disciplinary artist, Bell explores many different means of creative expression. Painting, print making, photography, sculpture, architecture and writing have all found their way into his work. Combining  elements of abstract expressionism, geometric abstraction, post modern philosophy, pop art, modern sculpture, and the ideas and philosophies about space addressed in modern architecture to create a genre uniquely his own.
“I am always searching for a new pictorial language to add to my work. Once I finish with a set period of ideas and feelings, I have to find a new visual language to carry on, a new way to express an evolving sense of exploration and understanding by incorporating different forms and ideas into my visual vocabulary”.
Bell’s current work evokes questions regarding pertinent issues, such as the impact of  social networking and media influence, and the ever-fluctuating values of contemporary culture.
