While originally from Nashville, Margot Suchet (Creative Director, she/her) is working as Hellmouth Magazine’s Creative Director as well as Lilienthal Gallery’s Art & Architecture Advisor based out of Knoxville. She balances independent projects alongside her professional life to explore new approaches to her practice. Margot’s specialty lies in editorial design, social programming, and aesthetic curation and uses this expertise in her efforts to connect an increasingly present community of creative people in East Tennessee. Through outreach to the wider public, protection of the general arts can safeguard pathways for the preservation of culture. 

Her devotion for the arts began at Nashville School of the Arts and Vanderbilt’s Blair School of Music during her years in their choral and orchestra programs; this passion was subsequently shaped by her studies at the University of Tennessee-Knoxville where she earned her Bachelor of Science in Interior Architecture with a minor in Graphic Design with an emphasis in Photography.
