Patch... When Things Break

Arts + Literature Laboratory presents Patch… When Things Break, a solo exhibition featuring the work of India Johnson, on view Tuesday, April 28 through Saturday, June 20, 2026.

This exhibition was organized by the community curation project, LAB^4. A reception for all LAB^4 exhibitions will be held on Friday, May 8, 2026 from 5:00pm to 9:00pm.

By approaching textiles through the lens of information systems, India's work envisions information as fragmentary, decorative, material, subjective, tangible, and tacit. India's work reveals the shifts in meaning that occur through compiling, organizing, and annotating existing information and material.

India Johnson (she/her) is a research-based artist working across craft, artist publishing, and social practice. She is half of Late Night Copies Press, and co-founded the Workshop for Independent Publishing in Minneapolis, MN.
