Origin Art – Her Frame

Sue Martin’s work is a celebration of layered histories and personal narratives. Through a bold fusion of painting, printmaking, and typography, she constructs images that are at once visually striking and deeply rooted in memory and place.

Each mark and letter carries a trace of time, evoking the physicality of archives while speaking to the emotional resonance of mapping one’s own story. In Martin’s hands, the canvas becomes both a record and a reflection, charting not only geography but the shifting contours of identity.
