Susie Dureau

'Ocean of Summers' considers the ocean as a space where daily rhythms converge into a moment of quiet clarity. The painting engages with the sea as a temporal space, one shaped by cycles of flow, duration, and the subtle transitions that mark lived experience. Light, colour, and atmosphere register shifts in perception, offering a moment of orientation in which inner and outer conditions align.

Susie Dureau’s oil paintings, light installations and spectrogram collages are portals into other worlds: worlds where reality and imagination are interchangeable. She ‘feels’ as a way of thinking, using her primary experience of the natural world as a guide. While her artworks are landscape-based, they invite non-literal interpretations about light, colour, and energy in the landscape. They point to the wildness and primal nature in humankind. Her current investigation explores the forces that bind humanity into an intimate reciprocal relationship with the more-than-human world.
