Susie Lewis
Artist Profile
Susie Lewis approaches glass as a material of discovery, working across blown, fused, slumped and constructed forms. Rather than imposing a predetermined outcome, they allow each work to evolve through an intuitive dialogue with material, heat and process. Technical control sits alongside improvisation, risk and chance, giving the finished pieces a sense of immediacy and singularity.
Melbourne-based artist Susie Lewis has developed a multidisciplinary practice spanning glass, ceramics and jewellery. Following studies in ceramics at Box Hill TAFE, they undertook extensive training in glass, including three years of mentorship with Brenda Page, glass casting with Richard Morell and glass-blowing studies in Türkiye.
Lewis has exhibited in group exhibitions at Smith Street Gallery and Brunswick Street Gallery. Their broader practice encompasses jewellery, silversmithing, printmaking, textiles and ceramics, alongside teaching jewellery-making at Fitzroy Community School and within a therapeutic program at the Women’s Hospital.
