In totality, Jhon Goes In Center’s abilities skillfully bring to fruition the concept of wearable art: the Art of Personal Adornment. Constantly striving to create from within the Lakota paradigm, Goes In Center’s creations embody the Spirit of the land through the relationship of Agates and other Prairie gems found in the homeland of his ancestors.
Goes In Center’s appreciation of ancestral philosophies in combination with his present worldview provides the inspiration to take Lakota personal adornment beyond the clichè while honoring ancestral artistic creativity. This is evident in use of thematic designs relevant to the on going Lakota way of life. Goes In Center considers each piece he creates a multi-dimensional medium, bringing the beholder to a greater appreciation of the relationship we have with all of Creation.

“In my opinion jewelry is the perfect art form, dimensional and visual. The processes are exacting and challenging. Metal and beautiful stones… The wearer becomes my gallery and shows my work to the world.”
