CCS Professor Susan Aaron-Taylor draws
inspiration from tarot.
SUZANNE CHESSLER
Special to The Jewish News
S
usan Aaron-Taylor fixes her
attention on the hidden
recesses of the mind and
expresses her exploration
through multimedia sculptural forms.
"The Fool's Journey," her new exhi-
bition featured through June 20 at the
Anderson Gallery in Pontiac, builds
on tarot card images to prompt inner
revelations and suggest personal inter-
pretations.
Although the exhibition shows recent
work, it falls in line with her longtime
figurative and symbolic approach.
"I've been interested in tarot cards for
several years from a psychological point
of view," said Aaron-Taylor, 50, a profes-
sor and crafts department chairperson at
the Center for Creative Studies (CCS).
"I've been looking at symbolism
from my dreams and using that in my
artwork for 20 years and went on to
study [Carl] Jungian psychology.
"One of the things that Jung wrote
about is tarot, and it was something I
became interested in not only because
the cards were symbolic pictorially but
also because it's just wonderful imagery.
"I wound up taking a couple of
classes with a woman who teaches the
cards from a Jungian perspective and
started reading them. They afforded
me a way of becoming introspective."
The title of Aaron-Taylor's exhibi-
tion comes from the zero card in the
deck, "the fool," whose journey
through life is traced through the sub-
jects expressed in the other cards.
"It's a journey that we're all on in
life, and I have [shown that through]
19 pieces in the tarot series," said
Taylor, who works with found materi-
als, such as bark, cactus, wood, fish
bones and crystals augmented with
polymer and kozo fiber. "Our journey
is not straight ahead; it's a spiral."
One piece, tided "Strength," is based
on a card that shows a woman prying
open the jaws of a lion. Her adaptation
appears to have a mask of a lioness with
the face of a woman underneath.
"This piece shows a ripping away of
the skin and kind of a balance
between the inner instinctual lion and
the other layers," the artist explained.
