“Moment of Perception”
VENICE, CALIFORNIA King Studio Taking almost diametrically opposed approaches, Mahoney and Johnson demonstrate rigorous, meticulous control of their selected materials and processes. In fact, the level of craft they achieve plays a major part in the appeal of the wall-based works presented here.
