In 2009, Chan was one of the six young British artists featured in the BBC's series School of Saatchi.[34][35] On the show, Tracey Emin who said that her work was better than some established artists. "The film's flipping brilliant," she said. "There's a few artists' names come to mind when I saw it but this knocks spots off them."[36] Chan's work also received a positive review in The Guardian newspaper from the art critic Robert Clark who wrote "Suki Chan's art makes us wonder in more ways than one. It enables us to treasure the wonder of the world through daring to suggest the dreadful cost of the loss of such wonderful phenomena."[35][37]

In 2020, she received a FLAMIN Productions award from Film London, supported by Arts Council England [38].
