His recent series of drawings, documenting a number of ancient sites in Greece, called “The Solace of Antiquity”, have been met with critical acclaim. A public exhibition of this series is being planned for 2021.  John has spoken publicly on numerous and diverse subjects such as the inherent idea of “Branding” as a component of contemporary architecture, and how it traces back to the broader idea of architecture being imbued with inherent meaning throughout history.
