About
John
His
works have been featured in numerous magazine articles
including Palm Springs Life Magazine, where his work was
described as "Spectacular",
"Mesmerizing", "...the highlight of the
home's custom furnishings".
In 2003, John created a life-size copper clad moose
for Park City's "Moose-on-the-Loose" charity
fundraiser, where he received the top bid at auction,
generating over $40,000 for Park City's arts
organizations.
"My
work pays homage to the unseen forces affecting our world:
from mathematics to metaphysics, from the sub-conscious to
the subterranean. I am especially intrigued by the parallels
between the macro and the micro. These forces and conditions
display an interconnectedness beyond comprehension. Through
my work I want to inspire in the viewer a sense of
connection to the world around us and all of its infinite
planes."
John Helton
History
has shown there is an emotional need for art in our lives,
which is exemplified by artistic approaches to items of
utility crafted by primitive peoples. It can be
assumed that the artistic embellishments on these items
would not affect the functionality of the piece, so much as
inspire the user. Hence the unique satisfaction John's
clients receive everyday as they experience his works of art
in their daily lives.
