Sue Hanckel is a Sydney-based Australian artist best known for her evocative and richly layered printmaking practice. Originally trained in medicine, costume design, and documentary filmmaking, she later transitioned to the visual arts, earning a Bachelor of Visual Arts from Sydney College of the Arts. This eclectic background informs her multidisciplinary approach, blending lino printing, stencil, collage, and cyanotype techniques.
Her work explores themes of myth, memory, the cosmos, and psychological landscapes. Often described as "fictional mapping," Hanckel’s prints are expansive and meditative, inviting viewers into imagined spaces that reflect both inner and universal journeys. Notable series include Constellated and Songs of Orpheus, which reference celestial patterns, ancient stories, and the human impulse to seek meaning.
Hanckel has exhibited widely across Sydney, including at Woollahra Gallery at Redleaf, Balmain Watch House, and Gallery Lane Cove. A member of Open Bite Printmakers, she was also a finalist in the 1994 Sir John Sulman Prize with her piece Beneath the Palms. Her work continues to resonate for its poetic sensitivity and quiet power, rooted in both personal reflection and broader mythic symbolism.
