Artist John Gamél

In 2020, artist John Gamel I left the tech industry and moved to Palm Springs to pursue my passion for art full-time. During this time of adjustment, he worked on a painting titled “The Other Side” which proved to be prophetic. His works are unique in their use of color, space, and materials, drawing on influences from the Renaissance period as well as 60s Pop Art and 21st-century design. The themes explored in these pieces reflect his struggles with life experience and strive for self-alteration. His works often combine various materials such as acrylic, oil, steel, wood, transparent resin, and Plexiglass to create an immersive viewing experience for the viewer.

In his continual pursuit of self-expression, knowledge, and experiences, he constantly challenges himself to create pieces that are distinctively his own. His aim is to produce artwork that tells a story of resilience and what it means to be human, ultimately striving to evoke an atmosphere of eternal search or hunger for meaning. Through this work, he has found healing in the midst of tragedy and hope in spite of life’s struggles.

Artist John Gamél believes art is a powerful form of communication, and he strives to create informed and individualized pieces that reflect the depths of his soul for all to witness. His journey continues with each canvas and every brushstroke as I work towards a brighter future.
