124 Bits
4’ x 4’ Powder coated steel canvas (option for raw steel)
Completed for Architectural Digest's MADE Design Show in March of 2017, this body of work is part of Susan's "Explosions" series.
Susan Weinthaler's distinct and original work uses small three dimensional structures with strong magnetic backings called Bits.
These hand crafted Bits can be grouped together on a steel canvas where you, the viewer, have the ability to manipulate, rearrange and reconfigure the pieces in limitless ways. As the Bits are meant to be touched, Susan has sanded, coated, painted and polished each surface with protective finishes for these pieces to last.
“In order to harness the extreme and ridiculous content of our current political climate, I turned to comic books. The language of violence in graphic novels seemed appropriate in explosive times like these.“ - Susan Weinthaler
