Viewing art as being a universal language, M.L.J. uses it as a form of visual communication, morphing words into images, pictograms of life’s phenomena. As an artist and educator, he has exhibited extensively throughout the United States, London, Spain, Puerto Rico, South America, and the African Diaspora. Currently, M.L.J. Johnson is an Adjunct Professor of Fine Arts at the College of New Rochelle and the Project Arts Coordinator for New York City’s Department of Education.

Beryl interviews MLJ Johnson.

“Yo People” is what I call my art. It sets the mood to one’s sense of humor far beyond the context of caricature or cartoon. What appears to be comic gives rise to satire. What might ordinarily be viewed as commonplace turns out to be ironic. The jests of puns, and the pranks of human behavioral confrontation, are all enacted through the dramatization of everyday occurrences, set into compositions, starring “Yo People.” These are expressive, animated forms with exaggerated gestures of body posture, language, and emphatic emotional communications. With a very direct, minimal design, the art demands the viewer’s response, which is more personal than looking at a painting.

A conversation with Ketriana Yvonne about her life. 

An exerpt from her “Dear Brooklyn:”
You are mine and will always be mine.&nbsp;
I was born to love you, Bedstuy, Fort Greene till I die.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Although we have had our many breakups&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
I have left you for others; Washington D.C Baltimore but even the sun and palm trees of L.A. couldn’t make me stay. 
I keep coming back and you always took me back with open arms. Dining me and you have never culturally deprived me.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
I know others dig you coming from everywhere like Jerk Water, USA as my Aunt Lena used to say.&nbsp;
I know you are being manipulated, pretenders trying&nbsp;to change you make you into something ...
