Crosshair Brand
A monumental grid-like structure of painted steel intersects with rich red oak elements, creating a powerful tension between industrial material and organic warmth. Johnson's signature crosshair motif commands the composition, evoking themes of surveillance, targeting, and the vulnerability of the Black body in America. The work balances geometric precision with raw material presence, inviting reflection on identity, anxiety, and the weight of being seen.
