Leslie Johnson
"Things can be much more than they are.” I find things, or ideas occur to me, through encounters, both visceral and otherwise, of daily life. I interpret and elaborate—sometimes through a new context. I amplify found, but not finished things. I can only determine whether an idea is worthwhile after putting it through the wringer of media and material.
Sometimes ideas are quickly resolved, otherwise problems are worked out in a series; like in music where four notes become 16 combinations.
There is a peripatetic aspect in the process as themes have been revisited over time. Gaps are filled in hindsight. Meanings of the work change in relationship to the changing world, and new-ances are brought forth. Ideas or materials can ignite the working process. I do not discriminate. The working process sometimes is like a seance as I mediate between what was said and what might be said.
