Susan Simonini
Through a tactile and layered paint surface, Susan Simonini creates abstract compositions that reference the agricultural landscape while questioning themes of place and belonging.
My paintings are layered interpretations of the gridded agricultural landscape and the geometric forms that appear in my environment.
