Suganami's paintings "of vivacity and originality,"[2] have included portraits of Welsh poet Menna Elfyn and the Welsh writer Jan Morris.[3] Suganami is "compelled to paint characters emanating tenacity, perseverance, resistance and tenderness – personal icons of endurance in uncertain times."[4] She has exhibited work at the National Eisteddfod of Wales in Anglesey, the 2014 Beep Painting Biennial,[5] and at MOMA Wales in Machynlleth.[6] She was artist in residence at Oriel Brondanw in 2018.[7]

As a member of Welsh music group Cusan Tan, Suganami recorded the album Cusan Tan on Wales’ Fflach label, which was released in the U.S. in 1994 by Firebird Music of Portland.[8] Sain Recordings released the album Yr Esgair in 2000.[9]
