Cart (Red), 2006

Ryan Johnson was born in 1978 in Pakistan.  He grew up in Jakarta, Indonesia and graduated from Jakarta International School.  He holds a BFA from Pratt Institute and an MFA from Columbia University.

Through his playful use of materials, Johnson’s work creates a theatrical tension between ‘stuff’ and its implied function.

He has been exhibited at Sikkema Jenkins and Co, Suzanne Geiss Company, White Flag Projects, Saatchi Gallery, Horton Gallery, and many more.
