bio
Suzie is an artist, designer, and researcher from the San Francisco Bay Area currently living in London. She works as a design researcher, most recently with Policy Lab UK, and completed an MA in Material Futures at Central Saint Martins in 2022.
Broadly, she’s interested in socio-ecological systems. She has a background in fiber & printmaking & has been working in sustainable fashion since 2017. Her making & research practice is directed towards exploring climate resilience, circularity, greenwashing, & regenerative design. She engages with these themes using speculative, clothing, material, service, & social design.
She's shown her artwork in Colorado & California, & her design work in the UK and the Netherlands.
I’m open to work! Please reach out regarding my availability for workshops, material consulting, or design & visual research.
