Suzanne Wyss
Blast-o | West Gallery
Blasto started his career with graffiti through form and typography experimentation. His research has brought him to explore different concepts and mediums with the continued objective of playing with space, architecture, and the spectator.
Recently influenced by mountains, he's been examining the idea of rocks as recipients of information and history, saturated with visible samples of the events they've been subjected to. In this way, he integrates new compositions and weaves different dialogs and narratives that hold each other in his work, at least for one moment.
Suzanne Wyss | East Gallery
Suzanne Wyss is a multi-disciplinary artist focusing on installation and sculpture, transforming industrial materials into organic forms. Using repetition and the inherent “isness” of each material, they are transformed into something altogether new, morphed into natural form and movement.
Wyss received her MFA in sculpture from Indiana University in 2013 and her BFA in sculpture and ceramics from the University of Minnesota, Duluth in 2010. She originates from the Black Hills of South Dakota. Wyss has shown her art throughout the Midwest and as far away as Osaka, Japan. Since becoming a Texan in 2013 her most notable previous works are a permanent installation at Springdale General, Thinkery ATX, and a site specific installation for the Facebook Artist in Residence Program. In the spring of 2023, Wyss received her masters in Landscape Architecture at the University of Texas at Austin to further explore the integration between sculpture and landscape.
