The Incubator Creative Hub is proud to present John Baxter’s exhibition ‘Outside In – Inside Out‘, opening 8 April 2022.
Artist John Baxter has been a member of the Incubator team since its inception in 2013. The Incubator team have loved watching his work develop into his distinctive technique and style, and feel that it’s always a special honour to exhibit his work in the Incubator Gallery.
The context of John’s artwork centres around the inter-connectivity of life forces from the cellular to the celestial; in particular the attraction, repulsion, or grouping of objects due to electrical, magnetic, or chemical bonding.
‘Outside In – Inside Out’ is John’s fourth solo exhibition. He describes it as a place “where outside influences create inner conflicts in the dark recesses of the mind, where dreams and nightmares languish, and depression and elation do battle with the mundane. Upon rest, or isolation, chemical reactions in the brain are converted into electrical impulses, which then manifest into subconscious expressions in painted worlds of abstract images, colours and shapes.”
Originally from Yorkshire, England, John Baxter is a Tauranga based artist, photographer, poet, songwriter, musician, prop maker and furniture designer with a Diploma in Creative Industries.
