Nicholas Johnson’s practice involves ideas around materials, consumerism and other systems within

contemporary western society (such as the everyday interactions with consumerism). The ideas and questions

which form his practice are formed from continued curiosity around the didactic interactions one may have with

these large societal systems. Johnson draws upon these interactions as well as written works to contextualize

these ideas, with texts like “The Grapes of Wrath” (by John Steinbeck) or “Are South African Diamonds Worth

Their Cost?” (by Albert V. Alexander). Johnson has previously exhibited at galleries like Gallery 1855, ACE Open

and Praxis Artspace.
