ARTISTS STATEMENT Represented by galleries on both coasts as well as Taipei and Vancouver, Prusa exhibits widely in museums and curated exhibitions. Her work has been supported by fellowships including the Howard Foundation and South Florida Cultural Consortium. Her work is in museum collections including the Perez Museum of Art, Spencer Museum of Art, Museum of Art Ft. Lauderdale, Hunter Museum of American Art and Daum Museum of Contemporary Art. Her work was selected for the 2015 American Academy of Arts and Letters Invitational, NYC, through nomination, and went on to receive a purchase award for a museum collection. Prusa participated in a four-month funded Artist in Industry Residency at the Kohler Company, producing a large installation of sculptural work involving fiber optics and silverpoint on ceramic. Prusa is a Professor of painting and drawing at Florida Atlantic University.
Charmed by how physicists think, her current work speaks to multiple universes and possibility. Each TOE (theory of everything) she creates is intricately initiated in silverpoint on a curved acrylic surface, sublimated with graphite and heightened with white to suggest forms at the indifferent stage, then punctuated by fiber optics. Recent work has complexly folded organic geometries cast in fiberglass to create sculptural forms that incorporate fiber optics and silverpoint that is now extending into 3D printing and CNC routing, as she continues to investigate the generous dynamic relationships of our being and express their vital beauty.
