Susanne Thurn is a visual artist living and working in Hamburg, Germany.
My work explores inner and outer non-verbal knowledge in the context of transformation. Textiles, as a material close to the body, are at the centre of my work. By meditatively releasing threads from fabrics, I open up new perspectives and scrutinise ways of thinking and acting.
