Susan Rodgers
Rodgers' signature is to compose industrial materials to create a foil for nature. Her meticulous construction and thoughtfulness to the site, materials, concepts and audience is consistently astonishing. This piece, created for Sculpture Key West, is based on her love of the purity of line and color and enviable sureness of Piet Mondrian's famous Modernist works. She finds in these paintings the evidence of the trial and error (over- painting, traces of masking tape, etc.) surprisingly poignant.
Rodgers works from studios in Key West and Lenox, MA, and is represented in prestigious museums, galleries and private collections throughout the country.
