Cassie Suche
About
Cassandra (Cassie) Suche’s work is distinguishable for its delicate balance of structure and spontaneity, expressed through a visual language of linear and modular forms. Suche’s practice is highly experimental, with a focus on process and material research.
The artist’s investigative approach to making has led to the materialization of bodies of work in a diverse range of mediums. She is known for designing her own tools and adopting a systematic, generative approach to production. Her works are both methodical and improvisational, residing in the liminal space between order and disorder. Pattern is at the root of her practice, but within Suche’s work repetition is not just a formal device, it is a transformative process that reveals emergent qualities.
Suche earned a BFA from Leeds Arts University in the UK with a specialization in two and three dimensional surface pattern design. Her work has received recognition from granting bodies including the Canada Council for the Arts, Alberta Foundation for the Arts, and Calgary Arts Development. She is currently represented by Ninth Editions (Toronto, ON, Canada) and Paul Kuhn Gallery (Calgary, AB, Canada).
Suche takes a highly experimental approach to generating work, focusing heavily on material research and process. Her practice is driven by formal and informal investigations of pattern, logic, and processes observed in nature.
