John Goto

Born in 1949, John Goto is a British artist best known for his photo-digital artworks, notably coming to wider attention with the 'High Summer' section of his Ukadia series of pictures which were made up of paintings, drawings and photography to create a surreal landscape that looks almost natural. Goto often followed the theme of historical, social and political views and were made to send out messages to the people who viewed them. Goto began using computers in his work in the early 90's with a series made in Russia entitled 'The Commissar of Space

My final piece and John Goto's work are in colour which i believed to be best for my piece. I chose to do my image in color because i didn't think that black and white would suit thesubject of my image.
My image is, however, a stand alone piece that isn't part of a series unlike Goto's.

While john gotos images are of a landscape that has been completely altered by himself mine is of a single object that has been placed into the 'scene' to create a landscape which isn't completely true to reality.
