Artist Bio: Scott Sueme is a Canadian artist raised in Vancouver, BC. Since attending Emily Carr in 2006, Sueme has been working as a graphic artist and painter. Starting in the graffiti subculture he has ventured personally and commercially through art, design, and installation painting. In​ ​recent​ ​works, Sueme​ ​explores​ ​a​ ​fundamental​ ​study​ ​in​ ​form,​ ​shape,​ ​and​ ​interactions​ ​of​ ​colour.​ ​The​ ​colour palette​ ​ranges​ ​from​ ​high​ ​contrast,​ ​to​ ​subtle​ ​neutral​ ​and​ ​off-white.​ ​The​ ​selection​ ​of​ ​these​ ​colours aims​ ​to​ ​capture​ ​the​ ​zeitgeist​ ​of​ ​our​ ​modern​ ​landscape​ ​-​ ​a​ ​fresh​ ​take​ ​on​ ​primary​ ​tones​ ​and in-between​ ​values.​ ​The​ ​result​ ​looks​ ​at​ ​a​ ​new​ ​association​ ​with​ ​colour,​ ​memory,​ ​and​ ​how​ ​we personally​ ​identify​ ​with​ ​them.​ ​The​ ​simplicity​ ​of​ ​the​ ​compositions​ ​reflect​ ​a​ ​sense​ ​of​ ​‘quiet’​ ​that allows​ ​the​ ​viewer​ ​to​ ​observe​ ​the​ ​harmony​ ​in​ ​various​ ​marks,​ ​colour​ ​and​ ​composition.
