Sue Meyer

Sue Meyer’s work emerges instinctively and it is easy to be swept up in its fluidity and depth. Her works invite the viewer into an open, transformative world that speaks of both mystery and adventure. She has exhibited continuously in both solo and group exhibitions since 1997 and has been selected as a finalist in numerous competitions.

Growing up immersed in the exotic sights and sounds of the East, Sue’s artistic practice is imbued with unique influences that resist easy definition. She migrated to at age 16 and attributes living in by the sea as her continuing inspiration combined with a lifetime absorbing the imprints of regular travel.

The multiple layers of her work reflect memory, nostalgia, and an ever-changing physical and emotional environment. Her technique involves layering spontaneous markings and gestures on surfaces scraped and scratched. Using mixed media including acrylics, ink, and charcoal, she creates metaphorical images and luminescent abstractions. Past and present to- gether with the ever-fleeting moment weave harmoniously into new perspectives and possibilities.

Contemporary Australian artists Pam Cowper, Elizabeth Cummings, and Jenny Sages have been amongst Sue’s most inspira- tional teachers, leaving profound influences on her artistic development.
