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.
“This is a very open piece, in which the giver and receiver participate in defining its meaning. The giver can fill in the wish—perhaps a hopeful wish for a future aspiration, or a wistful 'missing you' wish, or a healing wish of comfort and friendship. At Christmas time, Wishing can be added to the Nativity display. Her golden halo and angelic gesture engage with the other figures to tell a story.” —Susan Lordi
