SUSAN STAINMAN
Artist Statement
I am an interdisciplinary artist working in sculpture, installation, and social practice. My work counters the isolation and dehumanization of Late Capitalism through embodied contemplation, interaction, and play. I am curious about how we see ourselves and those around us, how we live together. Through everyday actions—a conversation, a hug, a moment of physical touch or proximity, or a moment of rest—my work seeks an opportunity for awareness, intimacy, and transformation. Interaction and play create mindful embodied reactions as methodologies for individual and collective change.
