ABOUT THE ARTIST / ORGANISER

John Gale is a British artist who focuses on drawing and sculpture. His work heavily emphasises human figure, movement, and contemplation, drawing inspiration from philosophy, mythology and most notably, Rodin's works including 'The Thinker' and 'The Fallen Caryatid'. John explores ideas around deep thought, and expresses a modernist viewpoint on 19th century concepts. Both complex and thought-provoking, his work demonstrates the transformation of his thoughts.
