Introduction

Sue produces mainly bespoke pieces for clients, both in public and private sectors, where the final work is developed through research and engagement with the clients.

Since 1989 her practice has been based at 36 Lime Street, and she began her career in the North East as a freelance lecturer at Sunderland University. Her practice is deeply embedded within the community which culminated in being selected for a joint ArtWorks Fellowship with Effie Burns in 2016, a national project overseen by Barbican and funded by the Paul Hamlyn Foundation. ArtWorks is a scheme supporting artists who work directly with the public sharing their skills and inspiring creativity. 

Classes are run weekly from her studio open to all as well as working with Equal Arts and the National Glass Centre as part of the Creative Age Challenge project, working alongside people with early on set Dementia.
