Johnson uses glass as the medium to create visual stories about our environment. Benjamin plays with pattern and texture to depict intangible micro and macrocosmic worlds. His work engages the viewer and asks them to consider how their presence is connected to and contributes to the visual history of the natural cycles in our environment.
