Carl Johnson

Medium: Fiber
Residency: September 1, 2021–
November 30, 2021

Originally from Washington, D.C., Carl Johnson works in the medium of fiber arts, with a specialty in weaving. He has always had a love for math and logistics and constantly finds himself counting and calculating in his head. Johnson received his BFA in Fibers in 2021 from The Savannah College of Art and Design and is a recipient of the 2021 Windgate Lamar Fellowship. Recently, he has shown his work in shows such as Art Fields, Moving Fiber Show, and Shades of Grey and was featured in Not Real Art’s Q+Art. He believes that he is meant to create and follow his own path as an artist, as he continues to find tangible solutions to the ideas in his mind.
