Susan in the Raw~ Contemporary Artist
Figurative Sculpture
Figurative sculptures are created using castings of the artist. The autbiographical nature of each piece can be seen through the personal translations of societal normas as internalized through the private lens of interpretation
Exterior Sculpture
As a designer and fabricator, each unique sculpture is created with space, function, and budget in mind.
I feel that art is for everyone, and use materials more easily sourced like: mild, stainless steel and copper to produce affordable, unique, and sustainable sculpture.
Metal coatings comprised of bronze, brass, and copper are suspended metal finishes that can patina and naturally age like cast bronze sculptures do, at a fraction of the cost.
As an Educator
My purpose in life is to help others see, feel and heal through art. Helping others find meditative healing in their own creative process is a large part of my curriculum. As an instructor I teach process, propose ideas, listen/mediate, and watch the individual & collective beauty of those around me.

Tangible creation and connection are vital during this virtual socialization period. This contest encourages visual arts for youth and also communication with family & friends through the voting process. ❤ Encouraging Skype, messaging, phone calls between the youth and extended family and friends will hopefully break down some of the quarantine walls.
