WELCOME TO SUSAN HENSEL ART – TEXTILE ART BY SUSAN HENSEL
Textile art by Susan Hensel. Susan is a multidisciplinary artist, with a 50+ year career. She combines a mixed media practice with embroidery across digital and manual platforms.
Discover intriguing textile art by Susan Hensel. “As an artist, I find the beauty and structure of embroidery thread is qualitatively unique. It traffics in optical color perception, providing a lenticular opportunity due to the tri-lobal structure of the thread and its ability to bend light.” To quote Jane McKeating, “Color drips off the needle every bit as richly as from a brush.”
Fiber and mixed media objects of overwhelming color that transcend the quotidien, creating experiences that step into pure sensation.
