Miriam Sushman
Biographical Info Before becoming a mosaic artist Miriam Sushman worked as a photojournalist in the USA and Israel. Having learned to work with a variety of mosaic methods and materials, she has taught workshops and classes to children, teens and adults in addition to leading community projects. Sushman creates mosaics from stained glass, china, beads and found objects. She is inspired by her house plants, flowers and vegetable garden, and the Milwaukee park that borders her home. Sushman’s skills as a graphic designer with a background in drawing lend strength to the structure of her work. The mosaic, which begins with a drawing, is created in a spontaneous manner. It is a meditative process and the solutions to any problems she encounters in the making are always resolved by the process itself.
