Sarah is an emerging visual artist, working in painting and sculpture, based in Auckland. She predominantly makes works with contemporary watercolour techniques, photography and collage.
Sarah's work pulses with the energy of transformation, thoughts turned into clay, memories layered in paint. She navigates the intricate relationship between mind and body, where creativity becomes both an exploration and an escape.
Her ceramics are sculpted synapses, vibrant with the electricity of neural pathways, each piece a physical manifestation of intangible thought. These forms feel alive, shaped by the unseen currents of the mind, rendered in bright, tactile hues.
Sarah’s “thoughts on paper”, feel like layered daydreams, or déjà vu. They unfold like memories revisited, familiar yet changed, glued together with the quiet persistence of the past on our present. Alongside these, her still-life floral paintings breathe new life into a time-honored subject. Watercolour pools and evaporates, leaving behind organic patterns. These works are then deconstructed and reassembled with found images, her photography, and paint, forming collages that feel both intuitive and deeply considered.
Rooted in a feminist sensibility, Sarah embraces craft and multimedia, seeing all forms of making as equally valid. She has always been drawn to the act of creation, first through contemporary jewellery, and now through painting and sculpture. Even as she pursued medicine, art remained a constant undercurrent, her first paycheck as a junior doctor funding night classes in jewellery making.
