Exploring Wild Space

Wild Space features five large mixed-media pieces, each capturing the wonder of the natural world through a dynamic and experimental approach. Using oils, acrylics, sprays, and even botanical materials, Suzanne’s work evokes a deep emotional connection to the environment. Her signature use of bold colors and diverse techniques challenges viewers’ perceptions, reflecting the complexity and beauty of our planet.

The five featured pieces include:

  • Violet Forest
  • Poppy Juice
  • Branching Out
  • Summer Meadow
  • All About the Green

Wild Space is currently on display at Northern Lights, inviting visitors to step into a world of colour, nature and inspiration. 

Speaking on her exhibition, Suzanne says:

‘Wild space features five large mixed media works highlighting ecological beauty and created to inspire us to embrace more time in the natural environment and reap the benefits.”

A Unique Artistic Approach

Suzanne’s artistic practice is influenced by legendary artists like Frida Kahlo and Andy Warhol, as well as contemporary painters such as Jessica Slack. Her work resists categorisation, embracing intuitive creation and ongoing artistic evolution.

Based in South Liverpool, Suzanne is also an active member of Liverpool’s sketching communities and the owner of Wild Art in Science. She is committed to exhibiting widely, bringing attention to the beauty of the natural world and the urgent need for environmental conservation.
