Intertwined

Where is the beginning, and is there an end?

 

The spaces between us are not empty. They are alive with movement, influence and possibility. Each thread contributes to a larger pattern — complex, evolving and impossible to untangle completely.

 

Community lives within these connections. It is not simply a gathering of individuals, but a network: a web of symbiotic relationships, shared experiences and mutual influence. Each embodiment shapes the whole, just as the collective, in turn, enhances each individual.

 

Intertwined explores the reciprocity that connects us to one another. Through ceramics, textiles, glass, paper, photography and mixed media, the exhibition presents diverse materials, skills and perspectives, reflecting the ways communities are formed through shared experience and exchange. The artists, connected through Sydney College of the Arts, continue to expand their individual visual languages while following divergent paths through time.

Susan Chen

Susan Chen is a Sydney based ceramic artist and designer. She creates
both conceptual sculptural artwork and functional ceramic designs. 
Chen is interested in the intersection of art, design, and craft, and explores
materiality through digital technology, specifically, 3D ceramic printing. The artist
creates unique sculptural narratives, often from social debris that is left behind, both in the physical and digital realm. 
Cultural objects and motifs from her Chinese heritage also serve as visual data,
which she encodes into her objects. Her work highlights the significance of the object in the ephemeral nature of the digital world. 

Susan opened her studio/retail space, Object & Ceramic Design (OCD) Studio in 2024, where she holds regular ceramic workshops. She is also a sessional lecturer at the University of Sydney (SCA), teaching sculpture and 3D object lab.
