Sue Emerson
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and beauty is all around us.
Sue Emerson is of both coasts. Born on the Atlantic Coast and raised on the Pacific Coast, she is influenced by the unique composition of the oceans and forests. She is also deeply inspired by the Dutch painter Piet Mondrian, post 1919.
Sue’s pieces are textural, and grounded in this place. Her sculptural block works are meant to be interchangeable, so the observer is encouraged to interact with the piece and move it around as they feel compelled to do. This way, I am able to share the joy with the observer.
It is her love of art and science that led her so naturally to ceramics and the mysterious world held within. Without a doubt, Mother Nature is her greatest creative influence. I work with ceramics because it enables me to use both sides of my brain and provides
very little in the way of boundaries. Sue’s work tends to be very textural and incorporates expressions of her spiritual side and her love of nature. She continues to learn through workshops, travel to other countries and places, and working with other artists. These influences are contributing subtle changes to her work all the time.
I love how my craft can change with me and reflect my thoughts as I go and I trust my art to speak to me.
