About

American painter Suzette Marie Martin uses the figure to embody narratives of human relationship to nature and to each other. Her Anthropocene Series explores ecological collapse through an ecofeminist perspective, combining goddess mythology, body language and chemical notation. Her Bedroom Series explores dynamics of intimacy and estrangement through the unguarded body language of sleep. Martin's practice is informed by observational studies and inquiry into environmental issues, with references to academic art traditions and 20th Century expressionist mark making.
