#769 Breaking Point | Rhi Johnson
Reduction linocut
Height: 37.5cm. Width: 47cm.
‘Breaking Point' is partially representative of an existing public space, but it is modified by memory, distance and personal interpretation. The image reflects a space which fostered experiences of déjà vu, whereby the environments or subjects depicted have triggered a subconscious response - a sense of knowing that is simultaneously withheld from conscious recognition.
Rhi Johnson is interested in the formation of everyday narratives, and how these can be disrupted or subverted visually. Rhi investigates visual cues that can punctuate an environment, object or space of perceived meaning, and in doing so, may allude to subconscious methods of processing information.
