Johan Thom (b. 1976) is a full-time performance artist from South Africa, currently living and working in London. His performances, which occur in a wide variety of public spaces, generally concern the artist's experience of everyday life in South Africa and the country's troubled past.^[1] Both personal and societal commentary, Thom's work investigates the relationship between the body, process, and ritual.^[2] His work primarily consists of video, installation, and performance pieces.^[3] Another central theme in Thom's work is 'the void,' that which lies beyond human understanding and comprehension. ^[1] His work explores the tension between humanized space and 'the void' through ritual, custom, and art.^[3]
