Bio

Susan Sussman is a painter who lives and works in New York City.

Painting in both the American West and New York City, she captures contrasting yet powerfully linked forms in her new “Canyon” series of paintings.

Sussman has a Certificate in Painting from the New York Studio School of Painting, Drawing and Sculpture, where she studied with Graham Nickson. She received her MFA in Film from Columbia University, a MEd from New York University, and a BA from Cornell University.

She shows at Prince Street Gallery and in other group shows, and her paintings are held in private and public collections including the William Louis-Dreyfus Foundation in Mt. Kisco, NY.

Statement

My previous work drew on my experiences living in a small agricultural community in Wyoming where the colors, light and distant forms inspired a feeling of awe.

In my current work, I have been painting from two new and apparently contrasting settings: the ancient slot canyons of the American Southwest and the modern built canyons of New York City. I have found surprising similarities between the earth forms shaped over thousands of years and steel structures raised in recent decades. Solid walls holding sky — canyons.
