Johnny Drama is a book featuring around 200 collages created by Steven Smis as an edition
for Kerosine, a publication by Robin Verslegers. Smis’s collages assemble imagery he’s
gathered over the years—fragments from CD covers, magazines, screenshots, tape, and filth.
These elements are restructured into a continuous collage that flows from one spread to the
next. Iconic motifs from the original images are isolated and repurposed as wallpapers
throughout the book. This book is a collaboration between Steven Smis and Louis Hilson, an
attempt into morphing each others practices.
