Susanna Bauer featured in Gardens Illustrated

 We’re delighted to share that artist,  Susanna Bauer, has been featured in Gardens Illustrated, with a dedicated piece exploring her intricate crochet works crafted from fallen leaves.

 

The article traces Bauer’s meticulous process of stitching fine thread into carefully dried leaves — often magnolia — transforming fragile, ephemeral forms into works that speak to memory, repair and our perception of beauty. Rooted in a deep attentiveness to nature, her practice honours the individuality of each leaf, elevating the overlooked through patience and precision.

 

Susanna Bauer is a German-born artist based in Somerset, working with leaves, crochet and found natural materials. With a background in landscape architecture, model-making and film, and having studied at Camberwell College of Arts, her practice centres on balance, fragility and a profound dialogue between hand and nature.
