In My Defense I Was Left Unsupervised

Presented by the Art Department

Saddleback Art Gallery is pleased to present a solo exhibition by John Biggs, whose multidisciplinary practice ranges across sculpture, drawing and illustration, and mechanical invention. Informed by years spent in the world of film animatronics and special effects, Biggs’ work fuses technical precision with a decidedly imaginative streak, resulting in objects that feel both rigorously engineered and quietly enchanted. Guided by a lifelong devotion to the act of mischievous making, he continues to pursue what he calls “rare air”—that elusive zone where curiosity, wonder, and creative tinkering happily collide.
