“There is economy, rigor and clarity in Fraser’s gathering planes and overlapping geometric grids, but the art also exists as a dynamic location of push and pull, its reductive, linear impulses forever stymied by its subterranean transcendent trajectory” Polly Ullrich in “Mapping the Contemporary Sublime”, pp. 6-9, Restraining Order: John Fraser Works in Mixed Media 1991-2010 (2010).

“The structured image is often obscured by gestural, often violent strokes of wax/paint. This process is a search for order while, at the same time, recognizing the need for inevitable chaos.� Robert Treat
