Susana Gómez is a Colombian artist based in New York, working primarily in oil paint with a focus on figurative art. A graduate of NYU’s Fine Arts program, she is also a trained actor, having studied at the Stella Adler Studio of Acting and the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute. Her dual passions for theater and visual arts deeply inform one another, shaping a unique perspective that bridges the emotional depth of performance with the expressive power of painting. In her work, Susana prioritizes the emotional life of her figures over realistic representation, using vivid colors and dynamic brushstrokes to reflect the fleeting, ever-shifting nature of human emotion. Her paintings become theatrical stages in themselves — spaces where feeling, desire, and memory unfold moment by moment.
