“In his first solo exhibition in Los Angeles, Artist Jonnie Prey seeks to explore the common use of our cognitive “Mythology Data” Items we use as tools, or objects as seen through re-imagined alien lenses; Dream Objects, Home & Garden, procedural meditations on the banal trash heaps of our everyday world. Uncovered through carefully selected pieces of Sculpture, Installation, Video, Sound and Performance, Divine Error aims to showcase an immersive experience and expound on the everyday Divinity of the Error around us, as we too have crawled up from the swamps in a dance of sub-species defiance, to prove that Error truly is the original design.”

Jonnie Prey is a Multidisciplinary Artist currently living in Los Angeles.
Born in Detroit, Michigan, he made his formative exploration in Performance Art when he studied Butoh with renowned Artist’s Koichi and Hiroko Tamano in Berkeley, California in the mid 00’s.

Jonnie remained a part of the Bay Area Arts scene until he relocated to Los Angeles in 2015.
His work has been shown in San Francisco, Berkeley, Oakland, Portland, Los Angeles, New Orleans, Detroit, New York and Berlin.

In 2017 The Museum Of Contemporary Art Detroit asked him to be a part of Cary Loren’s Punk House at the Mike Kelley Homestead, which resulted in a 5 hour long Performance Art piece that remains a part of a much talked about evening of mayhem, lunacy and inspired performances from Artist Jimbo Easter and Detroit Artists ADULT.
