| John Rojo is a rarity amongst artists and artisans. Whereas
many are talented in one medium, Rojo expresses a broad range of talent
across several mediums. He enjoys working with clay and his pottery is
renown for its visual impact. Functunality is not a concern - John emphasises
shape and form as a priority. His sculptures are equally provocative, at
times controversial, always displaying a vivid imagination and created
with superb craftsmanship. His delicate watercolours seem incongruous amongst
the ochre earthiness of his clay pieces, whilst his photographs demonstrate
the artist's ability to appreciate shape and light. John's "Perspectives
in Time and Space" , an exquisite exhibition at the Tarra Festival some
years ago, displayed the diverse range of John's creativity, a distinctive
and unique style achieved through colour, texture and technique.His
work is on display in a number of Australian galleries, and also at his
own showrooms in the beautiful Devon North region of south Gippsland, some
220 kilometres from Melbourne, just north of the Yarram township. |
