Susannah Hewlett’s work crossbreeds live performance, video, comedy, theatre and sound. She performs and exhibits in galleries, theatres, museums, cinemas, nightclubs and festivals. She is an associate artist of legendary queer performance collective Duckie.
Fixated on popular culture, her work disarms audiences, using comedy as a strategy through character-led performance, subtle interventions and videos. Humour often gives way to discomfort revealing the darker aspects of human behaviour and our symbiosis with consumerism.
TV Dinners sees Sue bring her work back to Norfolk after graduating from NUCA over 20 years ago – a buffet selection of her finest cold cuts; a platter of audio and televisual highlights and be-wigged character performance, including the return of perennial idiot Chris Titmas, egomaniacal VSS Shopping Channel host and ‘personality’.
This exhibition is part of a wider tour, including Brighton Festival.
