Johnny Clasper was a bricklayer by trade and probably didn’t expect his career to take off in such a different direction. This English man, who lives in Yorkshire, has become a true artist thanks to his innovative way of conceiving sculpture. Johnny uses simple stones and rocks to create fascinating mosaics. Today, Clasper has succeeded in turning his passion into a real profession by opening a shop where he exhibits his works, but he also accepts to make others to measure, according to the requests that reach him.

Clasper’s mosaics and his other works lend themselves very well to the creation of interior and exterior works: tiles to beautify walls, garden floors, fountains, ponds, sculptures, and mosaics. In short, a very varied type of sculpture that lends itself to different environments and situations.

Clasper has always loved manual activities, such as ceramics, woodworking, and metalworking, but he never thought of turning it into a profession. But one day, he decided to take a carpentry course: “Well, something that I really wanted to learn and that I liked to do” says the man.

In his work, Clasper refuses to stick to certain limits and lets the stone “flow” like water, composing his wonderful works – “If stone could come to life, couldn’t it be fluid and flow like water? the water ?”.

It takes a certain skill to compose and put together all these stones and rocks.
