About John Cake
John Cake is an artist based in Manchester and has been making work for over 25 years. Their work is a neurodivergent way of processing the impacts of class, religion and power — using painting, printing, digital technologies and installation to create densely layered webs of vibrant, almost abstract imagery. Their work has been exhibited in galleries all over the world, including the Palais de Tokyo in Paris, the Walker Gallery in Liverpool, and the Kunsthalle Bergen. John recently received the ‘Developing Your Creative Practice’ fund from Arts Council England.
