Susan Hartnett’s oeuvre consists of charcoal drawings and large-scale pastels on painted paper. Hartnett finds inspiration in both Eastern and Western traditions, from Asian philosophy to Chinese and Japanese ink painting and calligraphy via modern and contemporary art. The charcoal drawings of field, marsh and dune grasses reveal what the artist observes directly, capturing with precision the rhythmical movements of the wind and grasses rearranging themselves. Every stroke is carefully considered.
