About the Item
This carved basalt pedestal sculpture, "Memory of Rain," was the impetus for sculptor Rebecca Johnson's 'Rain Collection' series. Three smooth, voluptuous raindrops emerge from a curtain of roughly carved stone, evoking a torrential rain that you can almost hear. The smooth and textured surfaces play off each other beautifully, anchored by a lightly textured rectangular basalt base.
Rebecca Johnson grew up in an art-centric family in rural Hopewell, New Jersey. Her parents were designers, artists, and art educators and "Life is Art" was the family credo. This philosophy enriched and continues to inform Johnson's art and career. She received her BFA from Tyler School of Art and her MFA from the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts. She studied bronze casting at the Johnson Atelier in New Jersey and stone carving in quarries in Vermont. Grants, fellowships, shows in galleries and museums, commissions, critical acclaim, and teaching positions at Dartmouth and Kenyon Colleges distinguished her career.
Johnson now lives and works in Mendocino County in Northern California, a place of raw elemental forces. She creates paintings inside a large renovated barn at her studio in the Anderson Valley. The doors of the studio open to a hillside meadow filled with her stone sculpture. The calm beauty of this rural place resonates from her work.
