Lucia Johnson is a Black East German artist mediator born in Zittau who has lived in Münster for over 30 years.
Artistically influenced by both of Germany's cultures, her focus is on creating access to art for the whole of society. Her specific goal is to promote participation in art beyond racism and discrimination. To this purpose, she committed to developing a structure of participation for people marginalized by multiple forms of discrimination, in order to facilitate access to institutions by means of iterative procedures.
Since 2020, Johnson has been working as an outside eye for Romy Schmidt's project series of West German-East German cultures of remembrance at WHY NOT? KOLLEKTIV. As a witness to history, a “Zeitzeugin” in German terminology, she advocates for an intersectional culture of remembrance. Johnson invests her relationship-fostering and reflective qualities in the field of research and dialogic knowledge transfer, which she now pursues in the project "MONSTERA Landscapes of Remembrance for Reeducation — Good Citizenship in Yesterday and Today".
