Artist Suzanne Jackson is an alchemist who can make paint hold shapes in the air without the support of canvas or frame. She can turn garbage into stained glass, shimmering silk and hammered precious metal dreamscapes. And she can divine love and beauty in situations of peril and grief, like the devastation of the environment and the loss of a grown child.

Iranzo's project Permanent Souls examines how discarded materials can be transformed into functional sculptures that exist between visibility and absence. The work uses polypropylene nets, originally sourced from sports and construction contexts, and combines them with epoxy resin to create lightweight, permeable structures. The design process emphasizes handcraft and material specificity. Each piece is produced through an artisanal method that preserves the distinct qualities of the nets while stabilizing them in new forms.
