Susan Kaprov: Self-Portraits 1975-1990
These experimental black and white self-portraits
were produced on a Haloid Xerox machine, the first commercial photo-copier
ever manufactured. After the image is electrostatically transfered to rag
paper, the carbon toner is still loose, enabling me to hand-manipulate the
image before it is permanently fixed in a special heating tray.
Sixteen of these works are in the collection of the Whitney Museum of American Art.

Chasing Paper
Folded, loose, and crinkled papers of all varieties, colors, and configurations float, collide, fly,
and “dance" freely in tandem with urban breezes - yet go largely unnoticed by
our fast-paced city dwellers. Now they’re ready for their close-ups!

Allegory of the Senses
Vibrant interlocking shapes forge a kaleidoscopic, personal visual
metaphor of the world: complex, always in flux, interconnected

of chaos.
Represented in major museums and collections world-wide.

"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.
