Kehler Liddell Gallery

Susan Clinard began her sculpture career over sixteen years ago.  She works in wood, clay, bronze, stone and mixed media. Susan has taught at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Palette and Chisel Academy of Art, and Gallery 37and Creative Arts Workshop to name a few.  She has been awarded substantial public commissions and her sculptures can be found in many private collections worldwide.

Whether she is sculpting from life or carving wood, Susan strives to reveal nature’s truths, distorted or with perfect symmetry.  She also finds inspiration in humanity’s constant cycle of tearing down and rebuilding.  Her work explores that duality between the ugly and the beautiful: she cannot see one without the other: they are one and the same.
Critics have referred to her work as deeply moving, haunting and unnerving To see more of Susan’s work please visit www.clinard.org
