There was a time when Sarah’s work referenced landscape more directly.
Landscape is still pivotal for her, but now in a more internal, abstracted and oblique way. The clay structure is the earthy foundation, the surface marks, colours and textures are transient moments of weather and light, season and time.
She is constantly on a quest for the right resonating frequency, a human response, something describing nature and the rightness of it. A search for truth.
The finished works might be described as having strongly contrasting different appearances. Some, using glazes and brighter colours, look very different to the unglazed pieces, where contrasting slips highlight the exterior surface.
Despite the contrasts, there’s an underlying consistency in intent, and a continued connection to landscape. She follows her inspiration, always building by hand, finding different paths towards the same goal, moving across the different terrain with a variety of responses.
