CLAY & MIXED MEDIA: Discipline follows process; for clay artists, our process is a very physical practice. Our work cycles are subservient to the natural properties of clay and we must pay attention, moment by moment. These are also the foundations of spiritual practice. "In Susannah Israel's sculptures, mythos manifests when water and earth meet to create beautiful clay forms in joyful, kinetic connection."
- Charles Lee, Curator
INSTALLATION, PUBLIC & SITED WORK: Work made and installed in public spaces needs to embody and respond to that space and those people. As Faith Ringgold famously tells us, the personal is political. My work challenges notions of race, gender and culture. Most importantly, I have been told hundreds of times that people see their own stories in this work.
