Susanne Doremus

Resides: Chicago, IL

"Doremus includes no writing, but her hurly-burly of forms gives the same impression of restlessness, one motif developing into another without recognizing boundaries between representation and abstraction.

Such metamorphoses occur over the length and breadth of the artist's generally white surfaces, but there also may be serveral layers of them that decrease the prospect of immediate legibility.

Doremus further increases the time required to sort out her compositions by working with various implements and media that give great variety of line. So not only do her forms appear to be in constant upheaval, but her methods of recording also are ever-changing."
