Susan Perrine

Susan constructs introspective textiles ranging from handheld, to wearable and inhabitable.

A weaving apprenticeship led to experience working on Jacquard and Dobby looms.

Susan’s Twig Garden Structures have been installed in several dozen public and private gardens, including Artpark in Lewiston, NY, Converence Sculpture Festival in Newport, RI, Nantucket Island School of Design, Nantucket, MA and Coastal Maine Botanical Garden, Boothbay, ME.

A stitcher since childhood, Susan is currently turning her somewhat-randomly-dyed-warp, handwoven fabrics into wearables.
