Susan Hauri-Downing
During the last four years the nature of Susan Hauri-Downing arts practice has been strongly affected by the birth of her three and half year old twins and by emigrating from Australia to Switzerland.
Prior to migrating in 2006, she worked with themes directly related to the environmental degradation that was caused by the detrimental, unsustainable and management practices introduced by early Australian colonists of the 19th Century. The introduction of foreign species has been so pervasive, that today most Australians are unaware of the importance of recognizing and preserving native species and communities.
Since 2006, living in Switzerland the focus of her work has shifted to exploring the way in which the global cultivation of native and foreign plant species represents personal and cultural signifiers of human needs. For example aesthetics; cultural ties to the past; food security; availability of traditional food, materials for artifacts; traditional medicines and many other factors.
When it is possible, she uses recycled, second-hand, donated or surplus materials. Similarly she uses the support, services and resources of volunteer organisations or of government funded individuals/groups to reduce costs and to add dedicated voices to the issue being communicated.
Production of her works may involve groups of people who share particular concerns and who might act as consultants, designers, participants, technical specialists or evaluators. Sometimes her artistic role may be simply as a facilitator.
