How would you describe the work you do and why?:
I like words and common sayings and the ambiguity of accepted meanings. I try to consider these and present them as small fragments and textures that I try to turn around and consider from lots of facets. Repetition is also important to me, it seems to echo daily life and I often use repeating stitches and structures to reference this.
For you what does being an artist mean?:
Making things allows me to explore recurrent questions and make tangible internalised experiences.
Describe what you call yourself/your practice?:
My name is Sara, I am interested in textures and words that resonate with domesticity and all its quiet dramas.
Your practice & activities include e.g workshops, teaching:
At present I work from my home and combine art practice with a career as a registered nurse.
