Mer om författaren

Robert John isan artist from Tooting, South London of Pakistani descent with a CatholicChristian upbringing. His work channels the Surrealism art movement tointerpret the world around him and the reality in which it exists. Robert hasworked across many iconic brands through his career as a designer for the BBC.In late 2012 he started his art practice called What I See When.The idea for the project was inspired by his late father who lived withParkinson's and developed Parkinson's dementia, his father began seeing thingswhich were not visible to anyone else, he could see these things, smell them,even touch and feel them. This made Robert think about what our concepts ofreality are and what we choose to actually see. It also reminded him of how asa child he would create elaborate worlds and places in his imagination, hispractice asks us to go back to that imagination and tell everyone what we seein the world around us.

"Robert John’s images take you to a place that is somewhere between a sci-fi novel and reality. Beams of light and dark shadows transport you through thestructures and skyline of London where urban grit interfaces with nature.”— Tom Chambers, photographer
