Née à Zurich et élevée à Paris, Suzanne Syz part vivre à New York dans les années 1980. Elle y découvre une scène artistique en pleine effervescence et fréquente notamment Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Julian Schnabel et Jeff Koons. Cette immersion dans l’art contemporain marque durablement son regard.
À partir du milieu des années 1990, alors qu’elle ne trouve pas les bijoux qu’elle souhaite porter, elle commence à imaginer ses propres créations. Son langage se construit autour de la couleur, de l’humour et du détournement, associant pierres précieuses à des matériaux inattendus comme le titane, l’aluminium ou la céramique. Chaque pièce devient une rencontre entre joaillerie, design et culture Pop, avec une attention particulière portée aux pierres et à leur personnalité. Installée à Genève, Suzanne Syz développe ainsi une joaillerie contemporaine libre et joyeuse, qui regarde davantage du côté de l’art que des conventions.
