Berry Campbell is pleased to present a focused exhibition of recent work by Susan Vecsey. Vecsey has become widely recognized for her evocative paintings that often explore lyrical and poetic themes through nature-derived imagery. Her work is characterized by the subtle interplay of color and form, as well as her distinctive technique of pouring oil paint onto textured Belgian linen.

Vecsey’s process involves creating oil-stained linen, collaged-linen, and paper works that build on color field and minimalist traditions. Her technique includes charcoal studies followed by elaborate color studies and the application of thinned oil paint poured onto primed surfaces.

Vecsey pours carefully calibrated hues directly onto linen, typically completing one pour per day on each painting, gradually building the colors in layers while responding to the character of the linen surface. Working on several canvases simultaneously, Vecsey allows each painting to develop slowly over the course of two or three months.
