Decisions by Susan Lenz

by Libby on March 27, 2008

While I spend a fair amount of time thinking about art in our lives, and I go to museums and galleries occasionally, I can honestly say that I don’t often encounter art that really moves me.

Decisions by Susan Lenz has affected me on such a deep level. The pictures on the web fascinate me. The whole piece draws me in. I would love to see it in person. I’ve been following her progress on this large piece avidly. It’s a precious gift to watch an artist develop a piece, a gift that the internet has made more accessible. I am so grateful to be a bystander to Susan’s process as she stitches and frames keys, wraps nails and weaves a story with nails and keys and fiber around old doors.

It’s full of mysterious details and stories.

Hi!
Thank you so very much for this incredible blog post about my newest installation. Your words are so kind that I’m blushing!
Susan
