Press Release
CHRISTINA RAY is pleased to present Erasure, an exhibition of new work by Heather L. Johnson. In an installation of embroideries, watercolors and a text-based wall drawing, Johnson highlights a poignant moment in late nineteenth-century Hudson County, New Jersey. Uncovering the complicated history of institutions and asylums that once existed here, the artist revives some of what was lost as she questions our tendency, in American culture, to tear down the inefficient, inconvenient or painful parts of our past.
CHRISTINA RAY is an innovative gallery and creative catalyst in New York whose mission, grounded by the concept of psychogeography, is to discover and present the most important contemporary artwork exploring the relationship between people and places.
