U.S. Art in Embassies - Guatemala

Susan participated in the U.S. Art in Embassies program and traveled to Guatemala City in January of 2023.  This program has played an important role in the diplomacy between the United States and other countries through art, now celebrating its 60th anniversary.  At the invitation from Ambassador Popp and the U.S. Embassy in Guatemala, Susan participated in the Artist Exchange Program.  Her work has been on display for 2 years.  During her visit, she shared her experience with artists, women in business, engineering and University students. These interactions highlighted the universally shared cultural bonds between America and Guatemala and further the program's aim of sharing the story of the United States through its artists.

About the Work

Gott frequently works with a rigid sand mold technique, for it allows detail and the ability to work on a large scale.
