Susan English has pioneered a technique of pouring and manipulating tinted polymer that allows her to produce a wide variety of textures, shades, opacities and finishes. The fluid application of polymer creates opportunities for spontaneous marks as English balances between control and appreciating the unexpected.
"My work is a response to my experience of light. Color is light and light is color. The color, which is made by pouring layers of tinted transparent polymer onto panels or paper, creates an event of still light. In this stillness, there is something both timeless and calming,” said English.
