Opening reception

Elliot Johnson, a multidisciplinary artist from Queens, NY, has overcome numerous challenges and barriers to his pursuit of art, including his mental illness. A respected graffiti artist with many completed wall murals, his artistic output is rooted in his birthplace of Queens, and in communicating his unique vision. 

Depicting mainly black subjects, Elliot’s light touch brings his subjects vividly to life. Some illustrations are so complex that the work can take months to achieve the dreamlike, psychedelic effect which Elliot created with his hatching. Intensely original, Johnson luxuriates over the details in his figurative work while committed to communicating his unique vision.

Join us for the opening reception at Gallery Particulier, and celebrate the exceptional art of Elliot Johnson.
