threads

Pia Johnson

2 - 13 September 2009
Artist Talk 3pm Sunday 13th September

Artist and photographer Pia Johnson continues her exploration of Chinese culture and the fusion of the East and West in 'threads'. The photographic series features striking black and white images of fabric, woven threads which the artist offers as a consideration of "the delicacy and fragility of identity, its ever-changing and evolving nature, some of the metaphors we use to approach and articulate it."

The 2008 recipient of the City of Melbourne's Young Artist Grant, Pia's photographs have featured in a diverse range of publications across the globe.
