suzan globus
Through her non-objective approach, Suzan Globus uses raw materials as both support and paint in her two- and three-dimensional work. She juxtaposes natural and discarded materials like raw canvas and tree bark with bold color in various media or lets the unaltered material speak for itself. Globus focuses her artistic expression on creating new ways of seeing overlooked environmental and cultural issues, specifically gender equality and the fraying relationship between humankind and the natural environment.
Globus credits her formative years spent in Japan as the strongest aesthetic influence on her work and her studies with artist Grace Graupe-Pillard as impactful. She has exhibited paintings, prints, photographs, video and 3-dimensional work in juried shows in museums, universities and galleries in New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, and California. Her recent collaborative work with a choreographer resulted in performances in two New Jersey theaters. Her art is in private collections across the country. The artist has been awarded residencies at Chautauqua School of Art and ChaShaMa North in New York and Mana Contemporary in New Jersey.
Globus focuses her artistic expression on creating new ways of seeing overlooked environmental and cultural issues, specifically the fraying relationship between humankind and the natural environment and society’s view of women.
