Juan Stockenstroom

Stockenstrooms' work has continued to evolve in both aesthetic and subject matter over the years at a rapid pace. Never plays to the audience and rather takes long periods of time to experiment within the studio to develop, and research, various themes that are presented in his various bodies of work. He is interested in the geometry of shapes and their relationship to color in the micro view and how this relates to the human species.


However, the greater picture he regards is how every being has a specific geometry of its own and how it aligns with the cosmos and the universe as a whole. This is an ongoing study of what may appear as simply rendered portraits on canvas displaying polygonal figurative works set upon geometric shapes are actually various equations and algorithms which Stockenstroom often simplifies to allow the viewer a doorway into the surface of the painting.


His current interest lies in Vedic Mathematics, the Yogic sciences, and the relationship between color and sound theory. Understanding that each form of matter has a particular geometry and its own unique reverberation and yet is somewhat all connected to each other. Stockenstroom’s ongoing observation of life unfolding around him is the catalyst for his work. A strong favor towards process over result, he often spends days in the studio experimenting with various materials and researching new and interesting themes. The use of traditional techniques merged with technology is undeniable in the final presentation of each of his works. Therefore integrating digital art techniques in his work is quite in its aesthetic. Thus also lending the endless exploration of colour and its harmonies. He considers the continent of Africa to be an unlimited source of unexplored knowledge be it verbal or nonverbal and therefore considers his work as “What you see, is not what you get.
