BIOGRAPHY
SUSAN WEIL’S MIXED-MEDIA WORKS address the plastic quality of time and space through processes of cutting, crumpling and refiguring her compositions. In allowing the viewer’s eye to contemplate a series of moments and perspectives at once, Weil generously gives an almost omniscient power to the viewer, as well as a sense not of fractured time, but of a more truthful depiction of genuine experience.
Her work is in many major international museum collections, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Museum of Modern Art, New York, New York; the Moderna Museet, Stockholm, Sweden; the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, England; the J. Paul Getty Museum, Malibu, California; the Portland Art Museum, Portland, Oregon; and the Asheville Art Museum, Asheville, North Carolina.
