John Clark

Overview

Born in 1964, John Clark is a British artist who is concerned with the meaningful portrayal of the human condition, social norms and his observation of these through his lifetime. His never ending fascination with the complexities of seemingly simple scenarios and the common place allows us a glimpse into his deeply artistic interaction with life itself.

John graduated from Oxford University's Ruskin School of Art in 1986 and afterwards went on to pursue a successful career working as an artist in the video game industry. During this time, he rose to the position of Art Director at Sony Computer Entertainment Europe where he developed several leading games titles. In early 2010, he made the decision to return to art and began working as a practising fine artist. His narrative based work draws on classical artistic traditions as much as popular culture, especially films and comics.

John has exhibited extensively in the UK as well as internationally including in New York, Miami, Beijing, Stockholm, Poland, Finland and Spain.
