John Hyde is an artist whose creative spirit is inspired by nature and emotion evoked through the transformative powers of both the creation and performance of his pieces.

 

With a healthy respect for the level of emotion that can be felt while viewing unsettling pieces, he attempts to hone his work to help the viewer safely journey to a place where we can explore the darker side of ourselves. The creations are carefully crafted from traditional and innovative tools so that we can, through conscientious creation, and then sacred play, perhaps discover a path to knowing ourselves better.
