Suzie’s series Monumental Miniatures will be on display at the Judith Wright Centre from 30 November 2018 until 22 February 2019 as part of  Flying Arts Featured Artists – Summer Exhibition

Suzie Mansley completed a Diploma of Visual Arts 2017 at Nambour TAFE and began studies as a second year Bachelor of Visual Arts student in early 2018. She was awarded a scholarship at the Diploma VA end of year exhibition by ADFAS (Noosa Branch) to go towards continuing studies with the Bachelor of Visual Arts in 2018. Suzie’s contribution to the 2017 end of year visual arts TAFE exhibition comprised 200 pieces of wheel thrown miniature vases displayed in sets of five. 

Suzie has realised a passion for creating wheel thrown ceramic miniature vases! She uses porcelain clay and fires in a variety of methods including wood, reduction, oxidation, and raku firing. Her tiny vases range in sizing from approximately minimum 12 mm width up to maximum 80 mm height.
