Paul Johnson (British artist)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Paul Johnson (born 1972) is an artist based in London.

Johnson’s images of people and disused spaces are collages made from tiny pieces of paper, coloured by hand and fitted together in intricate patterns.[1] In older work, such as in 2003’s The Glass Family at One In The Other Gallery in London, Johnson has been known to cover his collages with semi-transparent laminate surfaces, obscuring the image.[2]

Johnson received his MA from the Royal Academy Schools.
