Susan Hopp

Susan Hopp’s work is an investigation into the idea of “place,” and how that has been changed/manipulated/redefined within the new context of a digital, social media age. The installations and small collages are appropriated photographic images sourced from social media sites. Digital and physical collages are then created from image fragments and partials, which are then reformed into landscapes. In her own words, “My process removes the image from the post on social media and evokes a larger conversation about the idea of place: where am I/where are we?”

Hopp is the Associate Chair of Foundations at Savannah College of Art and Design, where she encourages her students to critically think about the digital age of which they are a part. Hopp has exhibited nationally, including the prestigious Los Angeles Center for Digital Art.
