Artist Statement & thoughts about life .....
The intuitive and expressive painting style, I have developed comes on the heels of following my ancestral Danish Viking roots. Leading me on a journey to discover the magical and mysterious Rune Symbols.
They have found their way into many of my pieces. With a deeper understanding of their powerful messages and through the use of bright colours, dramatic and bold shapes, I am able to translate the intuitive meaning of the Rune Symbol into the artwork.
Visual language has largely been my primary form of communication since childhood as I struggled with verbal linguistics and had challenges with my sight. Expressive use of colour and art have given me a way to openly share my understanding of the world around me as I found my voice through painting.
As I have reconnected more with my Danish past, I began seeing messages in nature in the form of Rune symbols. Inviting each Rune into my paintings has given them a special message hidden within the textures and symbolism of my paintings. This series is Titled "The Elder Futhark Viking Runes" by Sussanne is near completion. When this series is complete and shown in the order as they appeared in nature, a deeper message will be revealed.
