Johnson’s materials are carefully considered, building on the notion of the by-product and calling on histories of colonial exploitation and slavery. Using dynamic processes like aging, staining, a...Read more

We talked of the slide show in the circus. Use a pencil to write the first draft. He ran half way to the hardware store. The clock struck to mark the third period. A small creek cut across the field. Cars and busses stalled in snow drifts. Not clumping. The set of china hit, the floor with a crash. This is a grand season for hikes on the road. The dune rose from the edge of the water. Those words were the cue for the actor to leave., 2022

An island is all surrounded by water In the morning foreboding Quickly solved by dripping A shower, you know A slow crawl to the park Wait first meat A coffee A hill A roundabout A breeze on the lake A larking body of water, once screaming once babbling, once running A sleeping family A white child with A water gun A tall tree A tunneling A horn Another A too small blanket, you in my mind and next to me A wind in my ears, my basement look what I found, leave the lights on A sigh A tie on a rooftop A still flooding Another horn All in the flight path An immovable object A clapping of leaves A certainty, it is seven feet deep One boy watches the other A horn, 2022

The grass and bushes were wet with dew. The man counted his old coins. A severe storm tore down the barn. She called his name many times. When you hear the bell, come quickly, 2022

Hello Hello Johnson‘s narcissis, here‘s your moon rising over that yellow thin line of a place not like in the ocean, those cliffs, opening if anything, Who know’s if they’re hurt? Hello Hello, Eden‘s in the sea and you‘re in hell, you then us, hello, hello, When it’s day and I see the moon in the sky does the moon go away before it is night or does the moon also stay? Hello Hello, mesh wire keeps chicks inside, Hello, Hello, The wide road shimmered in the hot sun, Hello Hello, This is what you get when you lay a circle out in triangles or maybe hop over the fence and plunge in, Hello Hello Hello Hello, a giant sees nothing in the mirror, Hello, Hello, can some one get me out of here. Hello hello the sun is the sky, 2022

Sweet words work better than fierce. The duke left the park in a silver coach. Greet the new guests and leave quickly. When the frost has come it is time for turkey. A thin stripe runs down the middle. A six comes up more often than a ten. Lush fern grow on the lofty rocks, 2022
