seeing the future

In this manga style, larger than life comic, John Horton brings to life a bold and uniquely styled public art mural. It is right at home on Brenden Theatres as the art evokes action, danger and an ultimate adventure.

John Horton is a multidisciplinary artist experimenting with painting in the digital aesthetic. Residing in Sacramento, California, he creates paintings that mimic the distortion of corrupt digital files; the result is a blend of art, technology, and humanism. With over 20 years of experience, John’s unique vision, combined with crisp realism, wild color palette, and traditional painting techniques creates a futuristic world view that simultaneously embraces and rejects technology’s ever-reaching grasp on society.

We captured John Horton and DAvid “hyde” Cho in the mural process but also got some additional insight into the two artists that have teamed up on several projects.
