Kiel Johnson // Los Angeles USA // Cardboard Artist, Sculpture, Drawings

Through layered narratives and story telling, my work speaks to my travels and adventures through everyday life. I think of myself as an explorer, setting out each day on an unchartered path of mediation manifested in drawing and sculpture. My work is a springboard for metaphorical investigations of the world I inhabit. Using line to explore places, objects, and spaces that exist in my imagination, I catalog my observations and seal them in time. The idea of work as play is central to my practice: handmade, hard work, and having fun. I believe in a laboratory approach of experimentation to problems without finite solutions. Inspired by odd discoveries, coincidence and chance, I seek to personify inanimate subjects. Drawing acts as a seismograph, witnessing my experiences and recording the vibrations; sculpture advocates my quest for understanding how things are held together. 

My intention is to bring a sense of curiosity and exploration to the viewer, asking them to consider their approach in navigation. An unstoppable force keeps me in the constant act of making without end to the journey. I am captivated by the transformation of material into a visual language. Approaching life with a heightened level of inquisitiveness and a playful mind, I continue to source new forms of communication.

French For Rabbits

With years of experience in production and delivering alternative sound and music experiences around the country with festivals and specialty event groups like the Sensonauts.

“Music and sound to me represents the epitome of artistic capacity for transcendental experience; how something so intangible and invisible can affect us with such remarkable intensity is nothing short of magical. It can move us both individually, and collectively. In any setting, music/sound can profoundly affects us.

As a technician and engineer, my work lies in the relentless pursuit of uncompromising fidelity. I’d like to build and maintain an ethereal bridge between artist and audience, and optimise the efficiency with which a creative spark is communicated; being a conduit for experiences that can shape and mould the trajectory of a persons experience of life, and something that is unquestionably ones of life’s greatest privileges.”
