About the artist...

Noah Saterstrom

I aspire to a form of autobiography that allows for not only the concrete facts of the everyday(the details of my studio, the people and world around me, my ancestors) but also theimprovisational elements of intrusive thoughts, memories, myths, and metaphors.The figure has always been central to my interests as a painter. Unsettling ancestral narrativeshave long been a generative force in my work as well, and these paintings are part of a largerinquiry into how to both paint and ultimately discuss difficult stories. Whether I paint about myfamily’s involvement in the cruel institution of slavery in Mississippi, or about the erasure of mygreat-grandfather due to his mental illness, the impulse is to use paint as a positive tool ofcommunication and exploration.
