Susan Roberts
I work with emotions, feelings, and sensations. My work deals with ideas of beauty. It seeks to magnetically draw in or repel the viewer through the encounter with surface or tactility. I am interested in notions of womanliness and where this leads.
I work in 3-D, using clay and plaster but also consolidate form in 2-D, drawing the surfaces I have experienced. I have been working with metals using both bronze and cast iron, I also draw, and use photography, film, and installations depending on the idea. I have shown internationally, in NY, Melbourne Australia, Dublin, Venice and Vienna in group shows. Some of my work is held in private collections. I am a member of several groups, vice chair in Sculpture Cymru, a committee member of Womens’ Arts Association, a member of The Welsh Group and Cardiff Drawing Group, and have recently set up with two others an exhibiting group acting as a hub with invited artists.
