"I am most known for my large-scale wire dresses, … I am very proud of this work as it has spanned many iterations of form, material and process and has allowed me the framework to explore within a loose but set boundary of form."

"Susan Freda: The Lady of the Dress - Art Summit"

Art Summit The Best Contemporary Artists and Art Collectors.

Carol Real, March 10, 2018

"There is a quiet lyricism in Susan Freda’s sculptures, a sense that light and form are engaged in constant conversation. Freda weaves metal, glass, and paper into poetic structures that hover between fashion, nature, and spirit. Her work feels simultaneously ancient and futuristic, fragile yet enduring."

Steve Starger, Art New England, Contemporary Art and Culture, Sept/Oct 2011

"Susan Freda works in a variety of media- sculptures, prints, jewelry, shoes, wire baskets, etc.—virtually simultaneously. What binds her disparate and prodigious output together is how the pieces share common information so they can be viewed along a continuum."

"Interview With An Artist"

Glam Couture Magazine 2011

"I very rarely plan out or draw what I’m going to make. Things come to me in dreams. In meditation. When I’m driving. I try to catch the idea when it floats by and remember it.   (this article has some great photos you could use with wearables if you have access)"
