Nice to Meet Q // Suzette Conradie

Introducing Suzette...

What do you do at Q?
I work as an usher in the FOH team

Tell us something not many people know about you…
I can play piano.

What’s the best show you’ve seen at Q?
Silo Theatre's The Book of Everything and Taki Rua's Pūtōrino Hill

If you were a drink, what kind of drink would you be and why?
I think I would be an Old Fashioned, because its a bit like me, but with a twist

What’s your getting to work jam?
Anything by The Libertines at the moment.

What do you do when you are not at Q?
I am a jeweller and I work part time in a gallery. I make contemporary jewellery. It is a practice I fall in love with everyday, you get to learn a lot about people and the objects they hold dearly.

At the moment I am working on a new commercial jewellery project that will be launched with a website and social media, soo keep an eye out! I sell my work through Masterworks Gallery and work on commissions, so if you need/want anything let me know! (Just email me at suzette.conradie@gmail.com)

What inspires you in your craft?
I am inspired by urban architecture, and the materials I work with. I often work with unusual materials and I let the materials lead the conversation in a piece.

I just finished a piece today, actually. It's a forged, sterling silver chain for group chain show at Masterworks Gallery in December.

Suzette loves Q and people who love Q. So she is offering up the chance for Q fans to WIN a pair of sterling silver stacker rings valued at $100.

To go in the draw simply send Suzette an email with your contact details and tell her about a favourite piece of jewellery that you own. Entries close Friday 20 November, 5pm.
