2 sessions, at the Main Campus
Where have you been? Where would you like to go? How will you get there? These questions can refer to specific physical locations as well as emotional states. We’ve all used memories and maps to examine where we’ve been. Our imagining of the future, Prospective Memory, is a way to map our future. In this 2-Day workshop participants will use these questions & concepts along with repurposed clothing, paper, personal ephemera & encaustic to create symbolic, personally meaningful artwork. These pieces will map paths to memories from our past and take us to places we’d like to go in our future.
Susan will be calling everyone individually prior to class to discuss these ideas and how you might best use them.
Susan Lasch Krevitt received her BFA from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago where she majored in Sculpture and Material Studies. Susan uses new and upcycled textiles, rubber, cardboard, metal, leather and whatever it takes to build abstract, free standing and wall hung sculptural paintings. She is passionate about materials, always looking to incorporate something new. Her organic, process driven work explores themes of structure, connection, transformation and memory. She finds inspiration in observations of the natural world, including growth and decay. Her work has been exhibited in galleries and museums internationally and throughout the United States since 1985. Susan has shown work at the Cape Cod Museum of Art and The Provincetown Art Association and Museum on Cape Cod. On the other side of the country she’s shown at The Chaffey Community Museum and The Riverside Art Museum in California. Her work was included in a group show at The Painting Center in NYC. Susan teaches workshops and works one on one with artists in her Thousand Oaks, California studio.
