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.
