Abstract
- Kiel Johnson, an artist in Port of Los Angeles, California, employs animated lines with subtle color to depict objects that might first appear nonsensical: blimps, wheelchairs, a tangle of plugs, and wires. But a closer look reveals them to be metaphors for human beings and relationships. Johnson's offbeat drawings are best described as diary entries, hyperbolized glimpses of his everyday life captured on paper. Most pieces begin with connections of moments that others might dismiss as mere coincidence. Inanimate, common objects populate Johnson's universe, and he thrives on giving them life.
