Santé Johnson

Duwenavue Santé Johnson, ArtXStitch, breathes life into fabric and thread, giving way to visual stories that are poignant and transcendent.

Santé is a BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) artist with a rich heritage spanning both the northern and southern regions of the United States over the past four centuries. This diverse upbringing has significantly shaped Johnson’s artistic lens, fostering a relentless quest for equilibrium, aesthetic allure, and steadiness within her masterpieces.

ArtXStitch celebrates diversity, fusing distinct artistic practices into a harmonious blend that transcends individual boundaries. Santé’s expertise in textile arts, which unifies fabric and thread to breathe life into abstract ideas, allows visual storytelling to take center stage.
