ABOUT

Sue Mann lives and works in North Yorkshire. Her art practice centres on a long-held interest in built environments and their impact on those who dwell in and around them. Sue works with the sensory action of drawing and through her work, invites us to take a closer look at our experience of the architectural spaces that surround us. 

 

Sue's interest in architecture began early, noticing details that shape the atmosphere of a room, from lines traced on wallpaper patterns, or the touch of brass door knobs, to how passages of light fall on walls and floors. She attended adult art education courses around work and family for many years before going on to study Fine Art at university.

​

Many of Sue's works reference shifting tensions between public and private spaces, while others focus on uncovering forgotten or reimagined aspects. Her artworks range from small, contemporary abstract drawings to large-scale, layered drawings, often installed to respond to video or light.

​

Sue works on site responsive projects, independently and collaboratively, and makes work for exhibition. Many of her artworks are available for purchase, and she welcomes sale and commission enquiries.
