Sendoff to AiR Susan Furneaux!

May 15-June 23

Susan Furneaux’s residency period at EE Studios has ended – thanks, Susan!

“What a wonderful time it was! Six weeks in the bliss of creation, experimentation and reflection on the concepts of impermanence. I created small 3-dimensional forms with local natural materials and textile techniques. Working with small shapes over a mould allowed me to understand the properties of the materials quickly. The making of pairs reinforced the stitching technique required for the materials.

My head is full of ideas! I am very excited to head to my studio and apply my exploration to larger pieces and new materials and processes. From zine-making to encaustic, I have researched new techniques and rekindled my love for others.

It is invaluable for established artists to explore and learn. A creation opportunity like this keeps work relevant. Many thanks, Eastern Edge, for supporting artists of all career stages. I am heading into my new studio space to spend the rest of my summer creating. Stay in touch!”

Happy making! To keep up with Susan and her work, follow her on Instagram here!
