Holiday Group Exhibition
December 7 – 23, 2023
Using vivid colors and iconic forms, Jackie K.Johnson chronicles events and environments. She explores internal and external landscapes with densely composed imagery. Stacking and wrapping compositions within compositions, Johnson is able to make stories within abstraction.

She has been included in gallery and museum invitationals including: the Blair Art Museum in Holidaysburg, PA; Johnstown Art Museum in Johnstown, PA; the Academy of Art in Easton, MD; 55 Mercer Street Gallery in New York, NY; and Gallery Protocol in Gainesville, FL.
