Responding to Night in the Gardens of Port of Spain by Derek Walcott.
Susan Dayal was born in Trinidad in 1968. She studied Sculpture at the Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art and Design in Dundee, Scotland.
Susan makes sculpture using the technique known locally as wirebending. The female torso and the mask are recurring themes that are used to explore the imagery of Trinidad Carnival, folklore, feminism and tropical flora and fauna.
