Lacey Johnson is an interdisciplinary artist, cultural worker and collaborator. Her work is grounded in elevating the everyday to embody the cosmic and divine through accessible mediums. She leans into rituals that grow from the politics of emotion, from publicly reading bedtime stories, to song writing, protest imagery, archival research, zines and video installations. She performs in the art band Cave Babe, and spent ten years writing her autobiography through self published comics. Her work has been used as teaching tools in classrooms from pre-school to college, and has been exhibited at the Oakland Museum of California, SOMARTS, Mills College Art Museum, the Salesforce Tower, the Roxy Theater, Recology SF, and the SF Public Library. Lacey is the inaugural artist in residence at one of the country’s last remaining dyke bars.
Lacey lives in Oakland California on unceded Ohlone land.
