Silenced:
by
Susan Hensel
As the youngest child of three, I was loved, cossetted, perhaps spoiled…but not always listened to. As a girl growing up in the 1950s, my statements were often discounted….leading in my case to delayed medical diagnoses and lifelong consequences from injuries deemed inconsequential. To this day it infuriates me when I am not heard when my opinions are discounted.
Susan Hensel Gallery
The focus of Susan Hensel Gallery is on compelling objects, meaningful use of materials, and engaging sculpture. It is a gallery where experimental ideas and works of the hand join to create unique sensory experiences. Opened September 10th, 2004 Susan Hensel Gallery is a gallery/ workspace presenting 5-6 shows per year in an intimate space, with hardwood floors and high tin ceilings. In 2013 the interior space reverted to a working studio for Susan Hensel where she continues to work on small and largescale artwork that engages both sculptural and cultural space.
