BEIJING, Jan. 17 (Xinhua) -- Few people may be able to get excited over the guts of a fish Authentic Clemson Tigers Jersey , sores on human skin, or a half-eaten peach. But Mary A. Johnson, an American artist and lecturer at Beijing's Central Academy of Fine Arts (CAFA), is fascinated by such things and embraces them in her works.


In Johnson's creations Authentic Auburn Tigers Jersey , food clearly plays a prominent role, as well as the tension between the visually seductive and repulsive, transience and decay.


"I would like to create a fluid experience of sensory dissonance," she told Xinhua in an email interview.


Food and organic dyes made from it are a focus in her work as food can be both attractive and revolting. "By using natural dyes in addition to digitally manipulated images Authentic Alabama Crimson Tide Jersey , my art-making methods bridge the digital with the labor-intensive practices of craft," she said.


The artist works with craft-dyeing techniques as well as digital photography to produce paintings, collages and installations.


"I begin my work by setting up still lives in my studio that I allow to decompose. These serve as the images in my collage and digital work," she said. "Along with collage Cheap Wisconsin Badgers Jersey , I use various papers, synthetic materials and my organic dyes to create images and spaces in which it is difficult to determine what is what: Is that the guts of a fish, or the seeping sores of human skin, or the bitten inside of a peach? Is that paint or the slowly cooked juices of black rice Cheap West Virginia Mountaineers Jersey , or wine, or blood?"


When asked whether there is a difference in the way Western and Chinese viewers see her art, Johnson said no, and suggested that human responses to given patterns tend to be similar. "Viewers are generally drawn to the unusual methods I use as well as the visually seductive combination of biological forms and colors."


Johnson creates her art in a studio Cheap Usc Trojans Jersey , which is located in her apartment in Beijing's trendy Wangjing area. Her fiance, her two cats -- all of which she found in China -- have also become part of the creative process as she has taken photos of her cats' mouths or her fiance's hand to include them as elements in her work.


Her Chinese intern, former student Luo Jingfan, helps Johnson with preparing materials for various projects in the studio. Johnson's studio is a place where there are multiple works in progress at the same time Cheap Ucla Bruins Jersey , and a laboratory of sorts. It was through experimenting that she made a discovery that has aided her work.
