Susan Collett
Traverse - contemporary, abstract, hand-sculpted, ceramic tabletop sculpture

2009

About the Item

This stunning contemporary vessel was hand-built from clay by Susan Collett. Her intricately detailed vessels are sculptural and created by twisting, squeezing and shaping paper clay. By layering clay pieces in a variety of colours from creamy white to black, Collett adds rich texture and depth to each piece. The organic shape of these ‘towers’ appears to resemble sea shells. Collett often finds inspiration in nature. “The use of light interplay provides a perceived fragility explored through stacking and channelling of hand-built clay platelets.” Susan Collett Susan Collett graduated with a BFA in printmaking and ceramics from the Cleveland Institute of Art and won the institute's prestigious Agnes Gund Memorial Award. Collett is a member of the International Academy of Ceramics and the Royal Canadian Academy of the Arts. She is a recipient of the Winifred Shantz Award from the Canadian Clay and Glass Gallery. Susan Collett's work can be found in numerous private and corporate collections.
