Susie Green (b.1979, Shrewsbury, UK) is a British artist who lives and works in Zurich.
Working across painting, performance, and sound, Susie Green creates vivid, colour-saturated worlds where expansive feminine figures claim power unapologetically. Her work draws on themes of dress, fetish, and disguise, staging bodies on the edge of transformation—caught between pleasure, tension, and release. Enclosed scenes of eroticism and play act as a lens through which to explore power dynamics and nervous system regulation, with colour-saturated tableaus of escapism and excess positioned in contrast to lived experiences of tension and anxiety. Alongside her work as a visual artist, she writes and performs vocals in experimental music projects, allowing for further reflection on assertion, artifice, and performance of self.
Solo and two person exhibitions include those at UNION, London, UK (2024); Quench, Margate, UK (2024); JW Anderson X AWITA, London, UK (2022); FRAC Champagne-Ardenne (with Cathy Josefowitz), Reims, France (2021); Workplace, Gateshead, UK (2018); Five Years (with Kim Coleman), London, UK (2018); and Grand Union, Birmingham, UK (2017).
