Description

Becky Suss explores the complexities of domesticity and memory through her large-scale paintings of interiors and small depictions of objects. Her work reveals the tension between fact and fiction, mirroring the ever-changing nature of memory. By using flattened architecture, exaggerated proportions, and distorted perspective, Suss amplifies this tension, drawing attention to the ways in which a dwelling can be both rigidly structured and adaptable. Her paintings often question traditional notions of domesticity, particularly as they relate to women's lives in America. Through her work, Suss seeks to elevate historically female private spaces that have been overlooked, highlighting their importance in shaping family identity and creating a sense of home.
