Susan Cohn: Techno Craft
National Gallery of Australia 2000
Born Sydney, Australia 1952
Su san Cohn is a jeweller and artist who utilises technology to modernise her craft. Her work explores the value and typology of jewellery, drawing from a range of influences including electronic and digital media, medical media, street and youth culture, and futuristic visions of cyberspace. With a history of working across art, craft, and design, Cohn’s approach to her work is erudite. Su san Cohn has exhibited extensively in Australia and internationally, and the work is held in major public and private collections such as the Victoria & Albert Museum, London, England; The Shanghai Museum, China; Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Paris, France; The National Gallery of Australia, Canberra; and the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne.
