OUR HISTORY, OUR VOICES PROJECT

The Shannon Deana Johnson Exhibit

About Her Exhibit…

I am a Knoxville, TN-based mixed media painter.

My process is intuitive.

I work to create a balance between harmony and contrast, simplicity and accumulation, and stillness and motion.

As the painting progresses, I often add more concrete elements such as botanical or figurative shapes.

In this latest series called, “Story of a Girl,” I have been exploring the use of imagery connected to the idea of femininity and aspects of it that are meaningful to me.

More Exhibits

The Cheryl Prose Exhibit

The MeToo Art Project launched October 2017 and is designed to (1) give survivors of sexual violence another vehicle by which to speak their truth about their experience, (2) be a means by which to hold perpetrators accountable, (3) raise awareness of the epidemic of sexual harassment and assault, and (4) be a means by which solidarity is shown- without regard to gender- with and to those who have experienced this type of life-altering attack.

The Emerald Green Exhibit

My name is Emerald Green and I am a photographer in Atlanta, GA. My submissions include images of women throughout the 2020 protests that were held throughout GA as well as Louisville, KY. I thought about what was asked of me, about me telling about myself and my work. While I was at different protests, I saw that there were only white men who were capturing moments.
