Lù|Way by Leah Schreiber Johnson

Lù|Way is an exhibition of work inspired by Leah Schreiber Johnson’s visit to Wuhan, China, where she spent 6 weeks teaching and traveling. Rich with texture, pattern, and ornament, the busy city sidewalks became an important physical and visual experience- heightening her awareness the varied and cobbled terrain of the growing urban landscape. The included monotypes and collages are made with pigment, ink, and water, responding to the historical significance of these local materials and traditions, while reflecting on the fleeting nature of China’s quickly shifting populations and places.
