"Child of the world, Into my heart you came - Bringing sun into my life, Making family our name."
Susan Lordi's artistic process is rather intuitive; she "sketches" in clay as she conceives, sculpts and carves each piece, always with a focus on gesture that speaks to the universal. By stripping down the essence of emotion to pure form, she opens the interpretation of each piece to the giver and the receiver. This one-of-a-kind approach to product creation makes her pieces truly individual... her hand, and her unique perspective, is evident in each sculpture.
“I wanted to do a piece that is influenced by the rich diversity in our culture — with multi-racial families, adoptive families and blended families. My sister Karen wrote the sentiment… it’s a love poem to a child.” —Susan Lordi
