An early interest in fine arts lead Suzanna Frosch to University of the Arts in Philadelphia, where she began exploring the construction of hand woven and printed textiles, graduating with a BFA in Fiber/Textile Design in 1984. She then continued her education at Cranbrook Academy of Art in Bloomfield Hills, Michigan, graduating in 1987 with a MFA. While at Cranbrook Suzanna focused on the architectonic elements of woven cloth. After her education, Suzanna moved back to New York where she maintained a studio while pursuing a career as a textile designer, working for such notable firms as Brunschwig & Fils, Calvin Klein and Donna Karan. Although Frosch has moved away from the loom, she has taken with her the vocabulary of the weaver; seeing in patterns, layers and textures. Throughout her work, one can see surfaces suggestive of nature's inherent symmetry, awkward incongruities and precarious balances. Suzanna now lives in the Hudson Valley where she paints and works in collage and mixed media.
