Calgary-based Susana Espinoza is hard at work in her studio creating a bold new collection of work. Our first glimpse confirms Susana's unique command of signature color choices with which she transforms geometric and intermittent organic elements into meticulously structured, dynamic visual feasts. We can't get enough from the edge of her talented brush.

 

An architect of floating hues and subtle definition, Espinoza celebrates the interplay of proportion with a wide-awake appreciation for vivid tableaus and symmetrical design. With hypnotic luminescence each piece presents ethereal, chromatic choreography with harmonic undertones that generate an aura of reflectivity and quiet contemplation. Espinoza’s work instantly draws the viewer into a gem like domain, providing a portal to a place of proficiently arranged juxtaposition and tranquil pictorial serenity. The artist masterfully employs an intuitive sense of shade and contrast generating exhilarating combinations of highly structured silhouettes; the affect is both rigid and free flowing, producing an electrifying representation of literal vs. figurative imagery.
