Susie K Taylor’s inaugural performance piece was held during the week of ART BASEL in Miami Florida. THE SHOW-
The Beginning of Susie K. Taylor’s Journey into Performance Art
Susie K. Taylor’s emergence as a performance artist began with a powerful moment of creative defiance. When a group of New York City artists arrived in her hometown to build an installation, Susie felt a calling not to follow, but to lead. She responded with her own installation at the Mitrani Building in Wynwood—a bold and deeply personal piece that posed the question: Can one analyze themselves the way an actor analyzes a character?
Drawing from her own experience of loss, Susie used the medium of performance to begin reconstructing herself, piece by piece. The collaboration, involving local Miami artists, was raw, unrehearsed, and performed three times in a single, ONE NIGHT ONLY event. It was filmed and documented, capturing the moment Susie stepped fully into the role of a performance artist—an origin story marked by vulnerability, courage, and an unwavering drive to create on her own terms.
