Welcome to my Homepage presents Brooke Johnson, a self-titled project by Brooke Johnson.

Project Description

My work references the strange and storied history of nature photography by utilizing image-making artifacts that metamorphose the subjects within my images. My use of transformative lighting, campy lens filters, and blurry exposures further activates the subterranean strangeness of nature by undermining what typically constitutes a beautiful photograph. In addition to the photographic specimens I capture with my photography and video, I also utilize the sculptural methods of display often seen in natural history museums including light boxes and vinyl murals.

Artist Bio

Johnson is an artist living and working in Forth Worth, Texas. She is a recent graduate from the University of Texas at Austin, earning a BFA in Studio Art, a BA in Art History, and a Bridging Disciplines Program Certificate in Museum Studies.
