Suzie Smith

I am a 2nd Year Glass and Ceramics student, studying at Sunderland University. I am a glass artist, specialising in hot blown glass. I find inspiration in the wonders of the natural world and the simple joys of uncovering the extraordinary within the mundane. I have a deep appreciation of the environment and I find solace and creative stimulation in the ever-changing beauty of the natural landscapes and coastal vistas. I am fascinated with the way glass not only captures the light, but how it interacts with its surroundings, reacting and reflecting with it.

‘The Alchemy of Fungi’ springs from my captivation with fungi, their diverse characteristics and their often-mysterious roles within the ecosystem. They not only have a wide range of colours and unique forms, but it’s their extraordinary abilities that inspire me. This piece aims to highlight and explore the complex and ecologic importance of the fungi kingdom within a scientific setting, delving into their ability to heal both humans and the planet, while also acknowledging their capacity to harm species.
