Artist Statement:

not express. Through painting

essence, with my hopes for
peace, justice and
understanding in a new and
better world. ...

Artist Reviews:
THE BOUNDLESS MNEMONIC EXPANSE
Susie Gadea develops a
hypnotic trance careful of
overlappings, of alternations,
of iterations, each of which
charts its own ascetic path,
separate in context but
concurrent with the mystical
figuration of the whole. A
totality that does not seek an
identity in abstraction or
informality, but ...

| Biggest Artistic Inspiration |
My inspiration is the energy of the here and now, that is why I paint only on bright sunny days. My painting is highly intuitive and receptive, a joyful and childlike process of exploration and discovery. I start by placing the blank canvas on the floor without a previous idea or sketch. I paint in a squating or kneelling position, moving all around it, enjoying each brushstroke and concentrating exclusively on the small area below the brush. |

| Your Personal Biography |
Susie Gadea was born in 1953, in Lima, Peru, in a bicultural family that encouraged her artistic inclinations and sense of global-citizenship. In 1969 she moved to Australia where she studied graphic design at the Brisbane School of Art. In 1978, she settled in the Dominican Republic where she successfully worked as an independent design and communications consultant. In 1999 she obtained a degree in psychology, discipline which furthered her understanding of herself and others; her inclination to transpersonal psychology complemented her philosophical and metaphysical interests, an on-going influence in her understanding of reality. The year 2000 marked the beginning of a period of intense inner search and adjustment of her goals which lead her to embrace the challenge of artistic self-expression, her live-long passion. Shortly after her first solo exhibit in Santo Domingo in 2001, she closed her design studio to devote herself in body and soul to painting. In 2005 she moved to Madrid in order to expand her horizons, since then she has exhibited in numerous solo and group shows. Her work is part of private collections in the United States, Spain, Austria, Korea, Australia, Colombia, Peru, Uruguay and the Dominican Republic. Her motivation is connecting with our most sensitive fibers and reminding us of the spontaneous, joyful and eternal essence that lives within. |
