Susan Bleakley is a Cornish-based British artist working across the mediums of paint, sculpture, installation, photography, and film. Since training at the Royal College of Art and Falmouth College of Arts, she has shown widely across the UK, Europe, and North America in both solo and group exhibitions. Susan is a founding member of the influential Penwith Artist-Led Projects collective (PALP), and is renowned for her signature lineal paintings of 'distorted geometry' that invite viewers to immerse themselves in the works as not merely spectators but as part of the art itself.

 

Formally, these paintings are labelled as pure abstraction and have the meditative rigour of American abstract painter Agnes Martin, herself drawn to the spiritual purity of the North American Indian life – inseparable from nature. The Bauhaus master Josef Albers with his writings on colour theory, had a huge influence on 20th century abstract painters – Brigit Riley’s famous stripe paintings being our best known example of simultaneous contrast. Susan’s use of this technique is nuanced and beautiful, her choice of colours quiver with light, inside and out, in synergy with the flowers and foliage growing in her Cornish clifftop garden – which she tends to daily.
