Susan Swihart is a photographic artist, born and raised in Massachusetts, now living in Los Angeles, CA. Her photographs are enquiries into the nature of identity and the persistence of memory. She received a BS in Art with a Concentration in Visual and Media Design from Northeastern University. A two-time Critical Mass finalist, her work has been included in numerous solo and group shows and collected Internationally. Susan Swihart If Only A personal narrative of self portrait work that explores the challenges of being a wife, mother, artist, daughter and friend in the middle of a crossroads, at the middle of my life, not quite sure who I am now or what direction I am heading. It’s a period that feels out of balance, a time where I struggle with the concept of aging and lost youth and the pursuit of having it all when I’m not really sure I want it. Often feeling that the person I thought I was has disappeared, replaced by familial needs and that slow and steady march through time as I shepherd my family forward. I am a participant observer in a life where I watch my children grow and take our place, while at the same time observe parents deteriorate. I’m lost somewhere in the middle with little room or time for personal growth or a clear understanding where I fit on the spectrum of my life. Not much time to reflect, but plenty of time...
