Susan Lyman is represented by Boston Sculptors Gallery, where her third solo exhibition, "Sculpture in the Unmaking", is on view March 1-April 2, 2017.

Lyman will be exhibiting her signature sculpture in wood evoking the body in nature. Made from sapling,root, trunk, vine and milled wood, the new sculptures are largely comprised ofworks reduced and reinvented from her sculpture of the past 30 years. There is nothing sacrosanct about the older work -- with a saw, grinder, mallet andgouge, Lyman painstakingly dissects, reconsiders and animates them into newforms.
