Amend is a solo performance (within a collective environment of artists working simultaneously), that orginally took place as part of RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW project, at Kilmainham Gaol, organized by the Performance Collective, Dublin. This event was a collective action with twenty Irish performance artists all making simultaneous performances inside a wing of the historical Kilmainham Jail that is now a museum. Each performer had an individual concept and separate space to install their work.

The most compelling aspect of being inside the cells was the relationship between the physical dimensions of the space to the scale of a human body. Therefore, Johnston devised the performance in response to this compressed sensation of space by developing a system of continuous movements that applied discipline to measuring distances, particularly marking the idea of a stride in reaction to the containment.
