About the Item

Abstract. Mixed Media. Strong fashion influence. Layered effect. Handmade charcoal wooden frame about two inches in depth. About the Artist: There is a strong narrative running through Susan Washington's work that references her long involvement with collage, textiles, fashion and art. She comes from a family of artists and by age 5 Susan was tutored in the art of origami and Sumi ink drawing by her Japanese godmother as well as water colors from her father. She spent her teens deconstructing dressmaking as a punk fashionista. Washington then went to work in the NYC fashion industry for 15 years until relocating to the Poconos where she commuted into DUMBO Brooklyn, working for an art publishing company. After several years she decided to pursue her own love of the arts and creating and began working towards her degree in fine art after which she traveled to London where she spent her time working under the guidance of artist/photographer Stephen Washington. They fell in love, married and both relocated to the States where they have a studio together in the Pocono Mountains. Artist Statement My work is in a constant state of evolution. I create to bring my own visions into the physical world to share with others & for the challenges I face when doing so. What I visualize often changes as it progresses into reality. It gives me problems to solve, unknown territory to charter, decisions to make and consequences to face from those decisions. I like exploration and discovery and my new series of works gives me these opportunities. My current series explores the balance of shape and space, some of the pieces are informed by my past working in fashion, large tailoring patterns are painted onto the surface: arm holes, bodices, necklines. I deconstruct them, rather than creating a garment, I keep them separated and then pull them together with another past infusion of memories of ripping origami paper and creating collages with my Japanese Godmother. Only now I use oil paint through the dress patterns, in a way to “sew” or connect them together. Other works in the series are based on the same concept where I connect to my subconscious and each mark informs the next. I accomplish this with larger, expressive and intuitive mark-making using thick oil. After my marks are down, I reinvestigate the canvas with elements of collage using my own old ripped paintings and textile. Many of these paintings are monochromatic as I focus on my composition with large confident marks, without the distraction of color. Eventually small vibrant strokes of color do find their way into the painting but only as reinforcement to the overall composition.
