ABOUT SArah
Sarah is drawn by the power of abstraction to invite individual interpretation and is captivated by the duality of perception- the way we view the world in moments of darkness and light, in its fullness of color and vitality. Each of her paintings becomes a lens through which viewers can explore their life experiences, finding personal meaning in the interplay of color, form, and texture.
Her work centers on two recurring themes: the human experience of emotion, and imperceptible representations of visual conflict- the kind of tension that compels one to linger and engage more deeply. She uses acrylic paint as her primary medium, as its ability to dry quickly allows her to obtain a stronger layered look, texture, and spontaneity. Alongside traditional brushes, she finds herself using a variety of other tools such as paper, cloth, sponges, palette knives, various scraping instruments, and water sprayers to add visual interest.
Each of Sarah’s pieces is a unique ecosystem, exploring the relationship between movement, emotion, structure, and imperfection. Dramatic elements often create a sense of unease, while detailed contrasts lend balance and direction. Her inspiration comes from everywhere- visual cues, ideas, emotions, and textures. She finds immense creative energy in the grittiness of natural elements, the tactile quality of fabrics, and even fleeting impressions of dreams.
Her current work as a fine artist primarily stems from an inherent need to paint, both for stress relief and a constant need for new challenges. Her hope is to create a moment for viewers to linger in ambiguity, and to find their own narrative within the layers. For Sarah, art is not only a means of personal expression but also a shared space for curiosity, contemplation, and connection.
