Artistic-Profile
For twenty-five years text has been central to my work. Whether using collage, installation, painting, performance or animation, it is the book as object and the manipulation of text which constantly inform my work. Social, literary, philosophical and political documents, tomes and bookpages, some old and some aesthetically exquisite in themselves, have succumbed to a range of manipulations and interventions calculated to conspire a kind of linguisitic and artistic subterfuge. Words are sometimes permanently concealed or reconstituted. The jackets, cut, even scorched and modified to accommodate implements such as taps, hooks and saws. The book has also been enchained, wrapped or rendered unopenable and unreadable. I most enjoy what I call ‘Coding’and making art without ever taking it too seriously, I set out to have fun by revealing an infinity of hidden texts and images in old books and magazines and an eternity of enigmas in everything from a box of coloured pencils to the camouflage patterns of exotic fish. I have produced a number of adventurous collages and assemblages, many of which used books as their basic formatand several performances, installations animations.

Janis has exhibited both in Australia and overseas. He studied Printmaking (1987) and Graphic Design (1977) at Perth Technical College and gained my Bachelor of Arts (Visual Arts) from Curtin University of Technology, Western Australia in 1990. In Perth, WA, He is represented by Galerie Düsseldorf, and in Riga, Latvia by Gallery Bastejs.
