Johnson's paintings are a testament to the enduring significance of abstraction in art. They could be likened to short movies; not the kind with a linear narrative, but rather, those that evoke a myriad of interpretations with each viewing. Her work demands an active viewer, one whose imagination is set alight, seeing different shapes and narratives emerge and recede like tides within the boundaries of her canvas. In "Fading Flowers," for instance, one can see the delicate dance of decay and rebirth, a motif that is at once universal and deeply personal.
