Artist statement
Suzanne is an award recipient of the Fellowship in the Visual Arts (FIVA)
from the National Foundation for the Advancement in the Arts (NFAA),
Peninsula Arts Association (PAA) & Wisconsin Arts Board (WAB) and the first
individual artist to receive the Fred Alley Visionary Award from the PAA.
Maintaining a traditional approach to photography, Suzanne--"a mindful minimalist" in style and approach--uses medium-format Hasselblad cameras exposing film and hand-processing all her work in a darkroom. Though she has a steadfast resolve to continue with traditional photography she has begun bridging "old school" photography with 21st century digital techniques.
Suzanne was educated at the prestigious School of the Art Institute of Chicago. After residing in Chicago’s Wicker Park neighborhood for almost a decade she has gladly returned to her home state where she is a full–time resident of southern Door County. Since 1994 she has happily lived in
a one–hundred year old brick farmhouse off the beaten track with her artist husband, Jim Rose, and daughter.
Her work can be found in many private and public collections including Chazen Museum of Art, Madison, and The Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C. Private collections include Ellsworth and Carla Peterson, Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin and Barbara Lawton, Algoma, Wisconsin.
A solo exhibition is scheduled at the Miller Art Museum, Sturgeon Bay, Wis., June through July of 2012, will debut Suzanne’s first body of work solely made in digital. The exhibition is scheduled to travel throughout the greater Midwest through 2015.
