This event has ended.

Inspired by poetry and folklore, Sarah Dwyer’s practice makes space for exploring image and form through the iterative nature of storytelling. Drawing is at the heart of her process, often combined with painting, printmaking and sculpture, resulting in reimaginations of the familiar through exuberant color palettes and lively approaches to mark-making. Incorporating both figurative and abstract imagery, her dynamic compositions are the result of processing her own surroundings and the human day-to-day experience, in addition to an indulgence in our desire for play. Scale and speed are as foundational as material and application in her work; an intimate relationship between decisive and intuitive action. Surfaces, in turn, retain traces of process and development within their own archive, and present the viewer with a navigable visual history.
