XY: Time & Memory- Limited Edition Print of 100 Painting

Jori Johnson (b. 1989) is a Southern California native, currently based in Los Angeles, CA. Both her creative process and content of her work are interwoven with the mental and physical health challenges that she has learned to navigate beginning in her early 20's. While initially inspired by personal experience, her practice is then built upon the synthesis of interdisciplinary research across a variety of scientific fields, processed through mediums of painting, installation, creative writing, and musical composition. Though her overall practice is primarily focused within the visual disciplines, written and musical compositions are always actively informing the work she creates. Jori earned both her Bachelor’s of Arts in Fine Art and a Master’s of Fine Art from Azusa Pacific University, Azusa, CA (2010, 2018). Jori’s work has been exhibited nationally including Los Angeles, San Diego, Chicago, Nashville, Dallas, and Long Beach. Recent gallery shows include group exhibitions at Long Beach Institute of Art and Science in Long Beach, NJ and Brea Gallery in Brea, CA. This summer, Johnson co-curated and is exhibiting in a group exhibition of 6 other women artists, “Mending Space,” at Perspectives Space Gallery in Encinitas, CA.
