Sue Platt

Lives in Saddleworth on the Pennines. Taught printmaking for a number of years but now concentrates on own work.

Working in sculpture,installation,
printmaking and painting, the inherent history in a found object is key to the work. Influences are many but include Tony Cragg, Mona Hatoum, Louise Borguois, and Rebecca Horn.
