With an interest in the material and formal language of painting and the tactile and intuitive possibilities of process, Susan Absolon harnesses the fluid interaction between word, image, and thought allowing individual works to evolve organically. Working without a fixed subject, experiences and observations rooted in day-to-day life are synthesized to become a new, unexpected thing. Susan Absolon’s work has been exhibited in Europe and widely across the UK. She was the recipient of a Juliet Gomperts bursary in 2012, and winner of the Contemporary British Painting Prize in 2021.
