Sarah Dwyer

The practice exists across interdisciplinary forms between painting, object and drawing using a breadth of strategies. Punchy exuberant re-imaginations of her familial surroundings and bodily forms are excavated with a somewhat mischievous and subversive approach. Ongoing research considers personal and shared histories, drawing on myth, in order to grasp the real within the imaginary.
