About The Artwork
This small series of bird paintings was inspired by the historical use of symbolic animals in church ornamentation. The phoenix is a mythical bird which according to tradition dies in a burst of flames and is them reborn from the ashes. It was therefore used as a symbol of rebirth and resurrection. The use of gold and the flattening of the subject is a nod to the traditional practice of ikon painting. Note: The painting is circular. The surrounding white is a card mount with beveled edge.

United Kingdom
Sarah's current work explores ideas of time and memory and our transient relationship with the past. Old carved figures offer glimpses into lost worlds of personal and collective histories; they are battered by years but still stand unmoving, not wholly part of the present. She is concerned with ancient myths and allegory as tools to explore wider ideas and is also drawn to objects imbued with significance - relics, religious icons and even photographs – and how they can come to represent, even replace, an intangible idea or belief. Sarah also works in contempory art education and access in Edinburgh and Glasgow.
