Graham's work has been displayed in museums and galleries in New York, and she is the recipient of numerous awards and grants. Susan Graham stated on the Institute's website, "I have been using both sugar and porcelain to create pieces with the same delicate look and a conceptually similar idea of preciousness, fragility and intense process. My sculptures and installations use repetitive acts or actions--often resulting in the making of a multitude of similar objects--and are linked to a particular psychological state. The materials I use, such as sugar and porcelain, give the pieces a feeling of domesticity or sweetness, while the subjects are ones that make me uncomfortable."
