Medium: Cyanotype on paper
Embryonic Stage is a series of cyanotypes (blue-and-white prints made with photosensitive chemicals) Johanna created using models she originally made for an animation. She adds pillow fillings, clay, and feathers on top of metal “backbones” to create these chimerical-looking silhouettes.
Works in Brooklyn, NY
What if we saw nature not as distinguishable things like trees, mountains, and soil, but as a cloud of influences that surround us? Harkening back to her memories growing up in nature and a personal interest in Ecofeminism, Johanna's method of printmaking is in itself a dialogue with nature. In cyanotypes, the intentional outlines of base drawings intermingle with spontaneous factors like the angle, brightness, and hue of sunlight - even the canvas it is printed on is candidly frayed at the edges. In her other prints also, watercolor-like effects make even the ground appear buoyant.
