Born and raised in Washington, D.C.

Hey, I’m Troy C. Johnson. I utilize the mediums of still film photography and digital filmmaking to explore the intricacies of my mind-body-soul being. Drenched in the inner-city vernacular, I aim to translate and transport my experiences and ideas via the camera and across the globe.

As I traverse throughout life, the world reveals itself to me through my viewfinder. Understanding the violent rapture of my ancestors from their homeland and being crammed into an even more vile institution of oppression and corrupted images of selfhood has sparked an immense commitment to redefining images of blackness and decolonizing the camera. My obsessions with language, spirituality, culture, art, history, and music are the bedrock of my photographic practices. 

Thanks for reading! Reading is important!
