Look at the person opposite you. Just a quick glance… Try not to stare.

Think of the sentient being they are at this exact event in time.

Perhaps there’s no one… even better.

Envision the once in the universe entity inside of you… feeling the experience of living your one and only movie — momentous, frame by frame.

Johnny Galceran is a U.S. based artist creating cinematography that projects, bonds and interacts with his paintings, drawings, and silkscreens incorporating the same subject in both the video and the art. Galceran’s work deals with the mystery of existence and its mystic chord to each point in time. He calls this form of theme and art Textured Eventism. 

Textured Eventism uses analog and digital combined to reconstruct and form a new view of the relationship between time and place, stasis and movement, the present and memory, and solidity and the ephemeral. The art is formed within an event of motion, space, light, and time.

Galceran designed and made art for productions by Steven Spielberg, Tim Burton, Warner Brothers Studios, Midway Video Games, and the El Paso Herald Post. He’s also been featured on NPR, Glasstire Texas Visual Art, and the El Paso Times.

Influences:

“I have realized that the past and the future are real illusions, that they exist in the present, which is what there is and all there is.” – Albert Einstein, physicist.

“It’s the simultaneous quality. When you look at a painting, you get everything immediately. In painting you get the beginning, middle and the end – and then you get the beginning, middle and end again.” - Julian Schnabel, artist.

 “There is a fundamental distinction between a still picture and a movie… You bring your time to the painting; the film imposes it's time on you.” – David Hockney, artist.

“My fascination with letting images repeat and repeat or in film's case 'run on' manifests my belief that we spend much of our lives seeing without observing.” — Andy Warhol, artist.
