Suzanne Moxhay
Suzanne Moxhay’s complex images use archival or newly taken photographs as their starting point. Combining a variety of low and high-tech techniques, her digital photomontages and etchings explore derelict spaces that, in the artist’s words, ‘feel as though they have broken down and perhaps been re-claimed’.
Suzanne’s practice is informed by the theatre of film-making, and strong light sources play a key role in creating drama. New life is breathed into deserted scenes by encroaching foliage or startled birds; often an uneasy sense of stillness prevails. ‘There’s always been a bit of a play in my work between what’s inside and outside, both in literal and psychological terms. In films the sets and scenes are often used in a way to try and describe the psychology of the character or something to do with the story; that’s always interested me.’
Suzanne studied at Chelsea College of Art and The Royal Academy Schools, graduating in 2007. She has exhibited widely, both nationally and internationally since 2002 and her work is held in many significant public and private collections including the University of the Arts Collection, The Royal Academy of Arts, The Cooper Union New York, and Oxford University.

Bodies of water - in particular the flooding of interior spaces - have played a key role in Suzanne’s recent imagery. In this work, rain begins to fill an imaginary room, its ripples reflecting the light streaming in. A dark cluster of fir trees, appearing as a painted mural on the wall, are also mirrored upon its surface.

Drawing upon the artist’s interest in the theatrical, the ‘backdrop’ of the work’s title is represented by a miniature forested stage-set placed on top of a aged table. Like many of Suzanne’s images, it brings an apparently natural world into an imagined interior space, playing with ideas of scale and perspective.
