Susan Stockwell is a contemporary British artist, described as a sculptor who makes subtly political work about materials and their inherent content and histories, with injustice and inequality as overarching themes.
Her work addresses political, social, ecological and feminist issues, using her trademark motifs and metaphors of maps, stacks, dresses, money, recycled computer components and other everyday materials and products.
[1] Robert Clark of The Guardian stated that Stockwell "misuses everyday objects and domestic materials to enchanting effect.
Stockwell's work is featured in numerous books, including, 50 Women Sculptors 2020 The Art of Walking: a field guide edited by David Evans Black Dog Publishing.
Examples of Stockwell's work are held in public and private art collections, including the Victoria and Albert Museum, London, The Tropenmuseum, Amsterdam, the Francis H. Williams Collection, Wellesley, Mass, the Yale Centre for British Art, United States and the House of European History in Brussels.
