About the Artist: 

Born and raised in Pahoa, Hawaii, Liv Johnson earned her BA in Art at the University of Hawaii at Hilo, where her position as Printmaking Studio Assistant allowed her the opportunity to help visiting artists develop and edition their prints for the UH Hilo Visiting Artist Print Collection. At Texas Tech University she earned her MFA in Studio Art with an emphasis in printmaking and sculpture. While her primary emphasis is in printmaking her portfolio has branched out into other mediums, developing works that explore sound, light, installation, and a wide variety of materials.
