St Helens-based comedian Johnny Vegas is perhaps best known for his surreal sense of humour, however he originally trained in art and ceramics at the University of Middlesex. During the COVID pandemic, Johnny found solace in creativity, and three decades after he graduated, he returned to the studio following a chance encounter with Wirral-based sculptor Emma Rodgers. Together, they have created new works inspired by themes of flight and metamorphosis.
The Stagnation of the Soul series is inspired by themes of flight and metamorphosis, and features porcelain sculptures, some with celadon glaze and mounted on slate bases. The sculptures often depict torsos and are part of a larger body of work exploring the "spiritual alongside the palpable.
