About Susana Cerezuela

My practice is led by ideas rather than by a single medium. While painting, sculpture and installation form the core of my work, I also work with photography, sound and other media when they best serve the ideas I am exploring. Through these different forms, I investigate moments of transition and transformation, exploring experiences that are often difficult to put into words, such as uncertainty, grief, healing and hope.

​

I combine human and natural forms to create hybrid figures and environments that exist between states, reflecting the continuous process of change. I am interested in the spaces between what something was and what it is becoming, where identities shift and new possibilities emerge.

​

Process is central to my practice. I work intuitively, allowing materials to react, evolve and transform as the work develops. Rather than trying to fully control the outcome, I respond to accidents and unexpected changes, seeing them as part of the creative process. This way of working has become a way of practising acceptance, recognising uncertainty and transformation as inherent parts of life.

​

Making is how I think. Through the process of creating, I begin to understand emotions and experiences that are difficult to articulate. I aim to create work that invites viewers to slow down, reflect and connect with their own experiences of change and transformation.

​

Through this practice, I aim to create spaces where viewers can encounter the beauty, discomfort, and quiet clarity that emerge within moments of transition.
