found object money clip, bronze, mixed metals

Devin Johnson strives to tell a story about humanity with every piece he creates and feels his artistic endeavors should be environmentally friendly and sustainable. Each material is a unique artifact, from a variety of recycled, salvaged, antique, and found materials from all corners of life chosen for their colors and textures, and their historical and technological significance.  These characteristics, which are often very mechanical and industrial, are brought to the surface in Devin’s work, as he forges each into a finished piece.
