Sara Habgood

Sara's new body of work reflects a love of bold, positive, exuberant and decorative images. The pieces are strong and graphic and use different techniques and textures to explore the process of representation. They aim to elicit a positive sensory interaction with the viewer. Recently she has been developing the style known as "pintura matérica", in which non artistic materials are incorporated into the paintings, media such silver leaf, encaustic and plaster relief. Some of the work is calm and contemplative, other pieces are more playful. All are to be enjoyed.
