GALLERY | $5-10 SUGGESTED DONATION | ALL AGES | Join us for the opening reception of her solo show, Hello My Name Is Sequoyah, by Sequoyah Johnson.
This solo exhibition serves as an introduction to the artist, both to themselves and to the viewers. Each piece acts as an invitation to connect with universal experiences, such as the fluidity of identity, the journey of growth, the discovery of inner strength, and the
resilience required to move forward. Through sculpted forms and
playful symbols, these works reflect not only the artist’s personal
growth, but also the collective experience of embracing the
complexities of identity and transformation. The exhibition emphasizes
that we are the essential elements in our own unfolding - we in fact
are the secret sauce here. It is a declaration of space—less about the
end result and more about the joy of exploration, play, and discovery.
Sequoyah Johnson is a ceramic artist whose work delves into identity, transformation, and self-expression through playful, symbolic forms. With a foundation in personal narrative and bold experimentation,
Sequoyah creates pieces that reflect the complexities of
self-discovery. Her ceramics blend everyday motifs with deep
introspection, inviting viewers to connect the tangible with the
emotional.
Embracing vulnerability and growth, Sequoyah’s work captures the tension between insecurity and confidence, illustrating their journey of claiming the title: artist. Through fluid natural forms and
unexpected objects, they balance spontaneity with meaning,
transforming each piece into a dialogue between material and
significance.
Based in Los Angeles, Sequoyah continues to push the boundaries of
ceramic expression.
