About The Wire Lady

The Wire Lady

Sculptural Wirework made from electrical wire and beads

The Wire Lady is Sue Clews, based in Leicestershire she's been creating work in wire for many years now, exhibiting widely around the country.
I work at home in my Jellybean Studio creating new work every day and working on colourful projects for wire sculpture, jewellery and home accessories made from a variety of materials.

I originally took my inspiration from home accessories from the 1950s. At first I began making sketches and line drawings of black metal magazine holders, coat racks with coloured ball hooks, textiles and ceramics made in the 1950s. I played around with these images from my sketchbook and began making flat wire shapes with some bits of electrical wire that I had lying around my studio, before I knew it these little wire creations developed into my first wobbly basket.
