Sue Williams (artist)

Sue Williams (born 1956 in Cornwall) is a British visual artist, trained, living and working in Wales.

[1] Williams made the news in 2009 when she was awarded £20,000 from National Lottery funds (via the Arts Council of Wales) to finance a study of cultural attitudes towards women's bottoms.

[5] Williams had been inspired by a visit to Zimbabwe, where her work had been taken down from two galleries because it portrayed women's backsides.

[6] In 2009 Williams visited China to study their gender politics and the dynamics of communication between men and women.

[7] In 2000 Williams was the recipient of the Welsh National Eisteddfod Gold Medal for Fine Art[9] and the Rootstein Hopkins Foundation Award for painting.
