PARTICIPATING ARTIST
Sarah Schuster
Born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts, USA,
Schuster attended Boston University where she received her Bachelor of Fine
Arts degree in painting and her Masters of Fine Art in painting from Yale
University in 1982. She lived and worked in New England and New York until she
took a position at Oberlin College in Ohio where she has been teaching painting
for the past 25 years. She exhibited in Istanbul, Turkey in an exhibition
called "Translation and Conversion" in 2010, The 1st Ecorea Biennale
in Jeonbuk, South Korea in 2012, and The 1st Changzhou China International Art
Workshop and Festival in 2013. Schuster has a solo exhibition up at the Furman
College Art Gallery at Furman College in South Carolina, USA. She has worked
across media for many years, but she always returns to painting where she
began. The subject matter of her work varies from project to project but the
underlying theme throughout her painting is the intimate relationship between
creation and destruction in the process of painting and in the natural
world.
