Erik Johanson

My work has been exhibited in a variety of venues in the region, including the New Jersey Biennial.

“I create sculpture because I’m in love with “making”, working with my hands is the most pleasurable thing I can imagine.

I work in a variety of media because I enjoy exploring new materials. I find that learning a new technique or trying a new tool or material stimulates new avenues of expression. Without a fixed concept of a final outcome, the mind is free to “play” with possibilities.
While my sculpture is primarily non representational, the forms are often suggestive of recognizable subjects.”
