John Knuth

artist United States

John Knuth is a contemporary artist known for his innovative use of live flies in painting, creating vibrant and abstract works through the external digestion process of the insects. His unique approach has garnered attention in the art world for its intersection of nature, beauty, and process, pushing boundaries and challenging traditional notions of art. Knuth's latest exhibition, 'The Hot Garden,' reflects not only his artistic journey but also a personal tragedy, as he lost his home and archives in a recent fire. His work engages with themes of climate change and recovery, making his fly paintings both a commentary on and a response to contemporary issues.
