Angela Johnson
Bubbler Artists in the Neighborhood + Pinney Studio
June - August; September - December 2022
As an artist, Angela Johnson’s mission is to offer high quality creative and mindfulness services and products; personalized creativity coaching; commissioned works of art that include handmade books, boxes, slipcases and photographic prints; and customized art classes and workshops, all to enhance personal growth and self-confidence. Her work includes themes of nature, balance, and telling stories through individual and collective memories.
For her Pinney Studio residency, Johnson invited Madison adults and seniors to explore new art mediums as part of the Madison Public Library’s Live Well @ Your Library program. As an artist who works in bookmaking, box making, alternative photo processes, art journaling, and installation art—with a focus on storytelling through family stories—Johnson sees the tools of creating as a way to process ideas. She hosted weekly open studio sessions and workshops for the community throughout her time in residence focused on different media/processes each month with an emphasis on storytelling through thinking outside the box.
Johnson has also exhibited previously with the Bubbler in 2016 in an exhibition titled Inherent Legacy.
