Recent Work by Ryan Johnston

November 16, 2018

Storage Space

6 – 10 p.m.

Indianapolis artist Ryan Johnston searches for integrity in the visual poetry we find around us everyday.  Whether physical or image-based, the content in context evokes an affect.  These observations influence his studio practice.

​“By doing things for yourself, you learn something for you.

​  Sometimes you have to make art for yourself.

​  In the studio you’re only responsible for your own actions.

​  Those responsibilities don’t carry the same weight as other obligations.

​  Those actions are luxuries.”

Ryan is sharing some of his studio favorites from the last six months with a larger audience at Storage Space in Indianapolis this November 16th.
