Susan Kaprov: Self-Portraits 1975-1990
Begun in the 1970’s and continuing to the present day, these experimental black and white and color photomontages were created utilizing the unique properties of random multiple imaging inherent in ordinary copy machines such as Xerox, Canon, Minolta, Haloid, and others. They range from highly personal self-portraits to pure abstraction.
Sixteen of these works are in the collection of the Whitney Museum of American Art.

Vibrant interlocking shapes forge a kaleidoscopic, personal visual
metaphor of the world: complex, always in flux, interconnected
and yet bordering on the random: harmony existing on the edges
of chaos.

“If the artists of the Renaissance had access to modern technology,
this is what their work would look like,” said a curator of contemporary
art. These hyper-detailed images carefully merge digitally scanned
live flowers and plants with artificial ones, blurring the distinction
between the real and the artificial.
Represented in major museums and collections world-wide.
