Artist Biography: Susie Smith
Weaving Imagination: A Life in Interior and Textile Art
With a career that spans more than two decades as a professional interior designer, Susie has not only transformed spaces but also curated atmospheres that bridges the gap between function and artistry.
The Evolution of Creativity: Textile Artistry
Susie’s talents extend far beyond the world of interiors. Driven by a desire to create something tangible to enhance a space, she recently embarked on a new artistic venture, crafting unique works that combine feathers and hand-sewn beads. This new chapter in her creative life draws upon her love of textiles and sewing and are demonstrated in striking, one-of-a-kind pieces.
What sets Susie’s textile art apart is not only the meticulous craftsmanship but also the philosophy behind her materials. Most of the beads she uses are recycled, each one carrying its own history and patina. Through careful selection and placement, she achieves a watercolour effect within her creations, with colours that gently fade and merge, using the principles of biomimicry to evoke the gentle transitions of light and shadow found in nature.
