GALLERY TWO

Cameron Johnson, Daydreams
Cameron Johnson
Restructured
December 5, 2008 - January 23, 2009
As an artist, Cameron Johnson constantly evaluates what
holds the most meaning for him. Whether it is family, money, religion,
or friends, he attempts to prioritize the people and objects according
to the value he believes they have. The collection of Johnson’s
work in Restructured aims to examine the way we establish value
within art and our own lives. Most of Johnson’s paintings have specific
areas of emphasis that are highly detailed, contrasted by areas that are
subdued or distorted. From the lines and shapes formed, Johnson creates
continuity within the painting. He believes that artists can not only
fascinate people with their use of color and line, but also inspire and
motivate people to think and see life differently. Art, like literature,
can have great influence. Johnson’s goal is to reinforce a need
for connection through positive relationships.
Born and raised in Charlotte, North Carolina, Cameron Johnson earned a
Bachelor of Fine Arts and a Masters of Fine Arts in Painting and Drawing
from East Carolina University, Greenville, NC. Johnson’s work has
been exhibited throughout North Carolina. He recently completed a mural
with two other artists for Princeville’s Heritage Park, Princeville,
NC. Johnson is an Assistant Professor at Meredith College in Raleigh.
