About this artwork
Sculpture: Paper, Wood, indigo, dye, handmade pigments on Paper.
Inspired by the emotional experience of nature when I study the flow of the river and the patterns it makes, when the light reflects and I know be like the river and flow.
Indigo, 6000 years of historical importance that continues to inspires me. I make my own non-toxic fermentation indigo vats using century old recipe, engages me in a dialogue that creates a deeper connectedness… to being.
The folding and unfolding of fine washi creates the perfect imperfect material for the many dips in indigo. Like the movement of water and 24k gold leaf is the light, that is always there for you.
Being and Doing is framed in clear custom made acrylic box .

« My practice is informed by the process and understanding of materials including their history and connection to culture . I express the emotional experience of nature, industry and the spiritual in my work. »
U.S. painter, textile artist, and sculptor Justine Johnson has exhibited work in the U.S, U.K, France, and Latvia. Johnson makes her own non-toxic indigo fermentation vats, and then folds Japanese paper into various shapes before dipping it multiple times in the vats. Johnson then uses 24 karat gold leafing to repair the natural tears that appear during this labor-intensive process. Johnson's indigo and gold pieces have a depth of color and intensity of emotion reflective of their powerful creation process.
