Hand-Painted is a series of varied edition prints that explore how we see and understand the handmade. Suzie Smith plays with ideas of truth and fiction, inviting the viewer into the artist’s process. The works show how many variations can stem from one idea and play with existing perceptions about fine art and craft.

Suzie Smith is a print based artist from Winnipeg, Canada. Her work is about oppositional ideas such as originality and uniformity, rules and rule breaking, mass production and craft and the process of creative thinking. She graduated with a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree from Concordia University in 2004 and a Master of Fine Arts from The Glasgow School of Art in 2011. She has shown both nationally and internationally and has had solo exhibitions at Atelier Circulaire (Montreal), Malaspina Printmakers (Vancouver), Open Studio (Toronto) and Ace Art (Winnipeg).
