Biography
S A M U E L L E G R E E N | | | @samuellegreen
[lives & works – Honesdale, PA ::: b. Honesdale,PA]
A native to Honesdale, PA, a small rural town, SAMUELLE GREEN’s early years were surrounded not only by nature but also by a family of artisans and craftspeople that had a lasting impact on her current practices. She also sought out artists in the community whom she began to apprentice under. She then went on to study at Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia and Parsons School of Design in New York earning a BFA. Green continued to live in Brooklyn and work there in the arts for nearly 20 years before relocating her studio to her hometown. This is where she continues to develop her paintings, drawings, sculptures, and installations as well as furthering the local artistic community through happenings at her studio and event space, Basin and Main. While based in PA, she is continuing to show her work both nationally and internationally.
Artist Statement
Samuelle Green’s work has always been multidisciplinary. Throughout all her mediums; painting, drawing, sculpture, and installation, there is a common thread of subject matter – that of the interaction of the human-made and non-human visual world languages. At times these encounters are contentious and at others symbiotic – often stills in processes of decay as well as those of fructuous growth. Whether through mark-making or the repurposing of recycled materials, Samuelle seeks to highlight the forms and details present in nature which humanity often overlooks and under-appreciates. Within sets of self-imposed parameters or on rigid structures representing metaphorical frameworks of natural laws, elements repeat and propagate giving way to organic forms free of their scaffolds both literal and non-material.
