Frank Bobbins

Jonny has performed and created artwork alongside Dave Davies as representatives of the anarchic artistic demigod "Frank Bobbins" since 2002.

Together they established an artspace to help support and promote recent graduates "The Frank Bobbins Institute" (F.B.I.) in 2014.

"In 2002 two minds collided within a vacuum. The fallout from which resulted in the appearance of the omnipresent Francis Bernoli Gutermann Bobbins. Part slapstick fool, part futile and pointless object; Frank soon began a mission.

A year later ‘The Bobbinist Manifesto' was drawn up and work began to illuminate the void."

The Bobbinist Manifesto

Bobbinism is the stepladder with which to see above the crowds.

Take off your shackles of what should be and create what is.

Have no worries

Have no pressures

Have no regard

Create the present for the future with a respect for the past,

but most of all

have a good time whilst you are at it.

Bobbinism has a smile
Use it.
