This Friday’s featured artist is Julie Johnson and her wonderful map collages!
She is another St. Louis area artist whom I’ve had the pleasure to meet and make art with.
And I find her map collages really unique and striking!

I spend much of my work day driving around St. Louis City. As an artist and photographer, I am attracted to the bright buildings and neighborhood revitalization projects happening in South City, North City, Cherokee Street, and beyond. I experience each neighborhood in St. Louis on a personal and visual level. As a teacher working with families in the inner city, each neighborhood represents a family's story and a personal experience with my
community.
