Seed eBook

The Seed journeys into the deepest heart and soul of one artist facing the massive paranoia of injustice, economic free-fall, unimaginable chaos, and unsurvivable global war. New towers of Babel eclipse the culture and spirituality of the everyday everyman into depravity and dysfunction. But like his colossal Shakespearean portraits poised on the precipice of cataclysmic conquest, the towers crumble in Johnston's modest belief that truth and justice will prevail. By giving his subjects the dignity of art, Johnston advocates for the clarity and wonder of hand-tooled sculpture, the timeless industry of a master artist working in his studio by hand, on a human scale. He sows within himself and his spectators a yearning for the universal human value of labor, the work of art, the dignity of labor, and labor as art.
