About the Artist:
Susan Lenz uses needle and thread for self-expression. She articulates the accumulated memory inherent in discarded things, seeking a partnership with her materials, their purposes, values, and familiar associations. She indulges a passion for old textiles, book arts, and 3D found object assemblages. Anonymous photos are an obsession. Giving new life to old things is a driving force. Her work has appeared in national publications, numerous juried exhibitions, and at fine craft shows, including the Philadelphia Museum of Art and the Smithsonian Craft Shows. Her work is in the permanent collection of the Textile Museum and the Department of Interior Museum, both in Washington, DC. Susan has been awarded fully funded fellowships to art residencies, including The Anderson Center (MN), Hot Springs National Park (AR), Great Basin National Park (NV), Guadalupe Mountains National Park (TX), the Studios of Key West (FL), and Homestead National Monument (NE). Susan is represented by the Grovewood Gallery in Asheville.
