SUSAN LUSS

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Susan Luss is an inter-disciplinary artist living in New York City, maintaining a professional studio in East Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Luss works with a range of materials and media. She intermixes and assembles these, creating adaptable work engaging the architecture of space, environment, natural forces, and shifting light. Her large-scale paintings on canvas, distillations of her urban wanderings, both physical and psychological, transform through environmental intervention.
