The pin cushion bra really
says it all. Hundreds of tiny,
decorated beads show on the
outside of each cup. A
frightening forest of sharp
pins pierce the inside.

Artist Statement for Susan Massucci

Born in Boston, MA. Graduated Cum Laude from University of Massachusetts at Amherst with a B.F.A in Printmaking.

My use of urban imagery began in 1992. At that time I studied the work of Romare Beardon (a collage artist) whose work lead me to my own collages and then to an obsession with city themes. I have always had a fascination for cities, New York City especially. My attraction to NYC is based foremost on architecture and man-made structures (such as light posts, crosswalk signals, traffic lights and one-way signs.) The "one-way" sign became a distinguished feature in my fine art prints. I enjoyed the rigidity of lines the structures created. Power lines and fences contain and reinforce the architecture. People are secondary to (and only implied through) the the structures themselves; they support the people. The city wallpapers the atmosphere. The buildings are repetitious patterns which formulate a backdrop for human existence.

I choose to work with imagery of older buildings, opposed to new ones, because I feel they tell a story. Aging buildings, surrounded by rusting fences have history in them. I enjoy depicting cityscapes, but I also like rural environments. This is evident in my barn series. I guess you could say I like working with the extremes despite the fact that I live in typical suburbia.

Now that I have elementary school aged children, I choose to work on-commission. The projects for my clients range from hand-painted signs & plaques to murals to refinished furniture pieces. If you are interested in a unique one-of-a-kind item for a special occasion (birthday, anniversary, wedding, baby shower, etc.), please inquire. Whether you know exactly what you want or need some ideas, I can help. I thoroughly enjoy working on art that is spcific and individualized for each of my client's needs and wishes. My satisfaction as an artist comes from each completed piece and seeing the joy each client has when they receive their completed work.

I look forward to working with you.
