About

Susan Peloubet is a mixed media artist. She uses organic and geometric shapes to create texture as well as pattern. The third dimension of the stitching emerges as the viewer approaches the piece. What seemed to be a line now has depth. The eye is drawn to explore the details.

After exploring many different art forms, Peloubet’s sewing roots took hold. It led to her fascination of embroidery on paper. She assembles abstract work through printmaking, collage, natural dying, and hand-stitching. She is constantly studying new art forms to incorporate in her work.

Susan Peloubet resides and works in Tampa, Florida.

Artist Statement

Visually drawn to geometric shapes, I explore the interaction between shapes and lines. My work challenges the expectations of the classical hand embroidery world. I use paper instead of fabric and stitch abstract work exploring line and shapes. Visual tempos and textures emerge. Color and stitching create form and depth.

Most of my work draws influence from the mid-century modern era. It was a time of simple lines, organic shapes, neutral to bold colors, and excitement. I experiment with different art processes and assemble them forming my work.
