Jon Raine’s Fine Art practice revolves around re-evaluating our perception of reality. Consistently captivated by the creation of concepts that offer fresh interpretations of our world, his work prompts us to perceive it in unique ways.

​

His virtual and 3D-printed light sculptures are computer-generated but crafted using the capture of scans and photographs from the real world. This fusion of virtual and physical realities allows us to see light in a solid form.

​

His indecipherable sculptures focus on neurodivergence, particularly literacy, dyslexia and language. The sculptures aim to initiate conversations about neurodivergence, challenge existing perceptions, and empower the next generation of diverse thinkers.

​

The sculptures consist of mixed-up words, sayings, and sentences, with the letters, fused, making their content nearly impossible to decipher, inviting the viewer to engage in a process of unpuzzling their meaning. Each work is a visual onomatopoeia made from the letters of its title.

​

As a neurodivergent individual, Raine aims to transform our perception and enhance society’s values of and accommodations for individuals on the spectrum, recognising that we are all, in some way, on that same spectrum.
