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.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“I see something beautiful in a shape. Some folk don't get it, family or friends often make fun of my weirdness, but as a loner I've learnt to find beauty, mutual appreciation and ultimately inspiration from the inanimate. Solace in the visually discarded. I'm in no better company than when I glimpse a natural form or a lathe turned attempt to borrow from the genius and beauty of nature. I'm captivated by the background of a photo, not the subject in the foreground. My focus refuses to be dictated to by expectations… The daily silent blueprint of human endeavour sings to me.”\u003c\/em\u003e - Johnny Vegas\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Johnny Vegas","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57306067206517,"sku":"JVS81","price":3500.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2555\/9248\/files\/JVS81_bb20a7db-07c0-4430-bc87-fb8a73d408de.jpg?v=1782399849","url":"https:\/\/bluecoatdisplaycentreshop.com\/products\/johnny-vegas-sculpture","provider":"Bluecoat Display Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
