JOHN KNOTT
Machines, insects, design, motion, emotion, human form, animal form, books, TV
commercials, life in general. I don’t know if this is a symptom of ADD or a
reflection of the total bombardment of random information modern society has
thrown at us.
Some times ideas come
at me in a flash.
Complete and ready
to build. More often
they start as part of an
idea. A doodle of a
shape that I like then
message into a
complete
three-dimensional
design. Some times the
design is driven by the
medium I want to work.
Some times the
medium is driven by
the design.
The common thread that runs thru all of my work is that they all have a story to
tell. They are all characters in a book, play, dream, commercial, incomplete
sentence, etc. I create pieces with familiar qualities about them but are
manipulated to a point where they awaken thoughts that are buried in the
viewers psyche. I provide the characters, I let the viewer write their own stories.
