Sara Suppan’s still lifes embrace the ordinary and the oddball. From a frowny face keyed into a car to lemons adorned with doodles, she finds beauty in the humble. Her work, executed in oil paint, deliberately undercuts high artistic tradition with playful, crude elements—creating a tension that is both sincere and awkward, familiar yet strange.

Suppan describes her paintings as "a little wave hello"—friendly, not flashy. This ethos permeates her practice: she treats every subject with serious attention, yet never loses sight of the inherent silliness. The result is work that feels honest and grounded, inviting viewers to appreciate the weird, wonderful details of everyday life.
