Heather Johnson
Heather Lynn Johnson is an artist and
poet living in Brooklyn whose work is characterized by its lyricism and
cultural critique. Heather’s formal approach to the narrative, whether
visual or poetic, is distinguished by her willingness to lay bare her
own existence. Centered around Black American liberation, trauma, and
culture with an emphasis on objectification and lost histories, Heather
uses an autobiographical framework and considers her work
self-portraits, imbued by her lived experience as a butch Black
lesbian. The 2019 Leslie-Lohman Museum Fellow and 2017 Literary Fellow
for Queer|Art|Mentorship, Heather is the author of “The Survival Guide
For Queer Black Youth” (Inpatient Press, 2017). She is a co-curator for
Queer|Art|Film and her first solo show “The Essence We Leave Behind” at
Nesto Gallery in Milton, Massachusetts closed to rave reviews by her
family and friends last week.
