All the paintings in this exhibit are from 2024 to the present. Stylistically, I am moving back to a more energetic blend of the abstracted figure, with no underlying theme other than whatever excites my whims, although a couple owe homage to a classical work. Two works are experiments that are less abstract where I played with glazes
Artist Biography
Kenneth Susynski presents a unique, hybrid style of figurative expressionism blended with the abstract in narrative compositions that stress an interpretation of beauty with a hint of wit, exploring combinations of historical and contemporary cultural themes.
Having been raised primarily in Germany, yet also in Turkey and Korea, the influence of culture and custom combined with countless visits to some of the world's greatest museums as a child formed his appreciation of art and, specifically, the figure. A lifelong interest in historical and contemporary black-and-white photography shapes his rendering of the human form. Working in oils, his goal is to create layered, vibrant works that are lastingly meaningful, timely and timeless, and evoke his spirit.
