Susanna Bauer uses what is small and fragile to express what is universal and enduring in our coexistence with each other and the natural world. In a uniquely conceived approach to craft, Bauer works with the everyday, inconspicuous details of our natural surroundings, skilfully embroidering found magnolia leaves with a halo of cotton thread and coaxing others into finely constructed three-dimensional shapes.
Her work draws out from each tiny object its own unique story of creation, existence and belonging in a way that mirrors our own exceptional path through life.
