Artist Statement

'I sculpt serenity.

In a world that rarely pauses, I create objects that hold the calm and quiet.

My work is guided by natural textures, sacred geometry, and emotional resonance — layered through wood, light, and intention. I believe spaces deserve more than decoration; they deserve presence.

Every piece is a gesture of care — a sculptural sanctuary for stillness, beauty, and belonging.'

Artist Biography

Sureen Gouws is a South African-born, Brisbane-based artist and former architectural designer whose practice explores the intersection of emotional resonance and spatial form.

Working primarily in wood and textured finishes, she creates minimalist wall sculptures that bring calm, beauty, and quiet presence into curated interiors.

Influenced by sacred geometry, architectural restraint, and the philosophy that “less” reveals the soul of a space, each artwork is handcrafted in small limited editions or as one-of-a-kind commissions — honouring a slow, intentional creative process.

Her work has found homes in private collections, wellness retreats, and designer residences. Beyond the visual, her art carries a mission of healing: a portion of proceeds from each sale supports Operation Smile Australia, funding life-changing surgeries for children with cleft conditions.
