Keep It Together was inspired by the island topography of Aruba. An arid desert island, Aruba is well maintained in areas of high traffic, while rough boulders and cliffs fill the areas uninhabited by residents. This piece is an overall female silhouette created by islands of clay. Islands closer to the mind are smooth and close together representing prioritized responsibilities. As ideas, dreams, and goals move farther away from the mind, color fades and and the islands become jagged and rough. This signifies the many sacrifices women make for their responsibilities and forced compromises as a result of gender disparities.

Tyra Johnson is a self taught multi-disciplinary artist. She began her artistic journey with mixed media painting and developed a passion for sculpture, interior design, and architecture. In 2019, she chose to focus her efforts on sculpture and architecture. Tyra minimizes color and overall materials to lessen the environmental impact of her work. She is most fulfilled and inspired when spending time in nature. The geography and topography of her travels as a military child and later into adulthood heavily influence her work. She explores fixed ideals of human existence expressed through natural forms to challenge ingrained perspectives.
