About Sarah Needham

Sarah Needham was due to take part in The Other Art Fair London, The Affordable Art fair New York with the Kahn Gallery, however these were postponed due to Corona virus and the Beyond Other Horizons show in Romania was locked in in lock down, and her gallery show at the Silson Contemporary Gallery in Harrogate switched from real world to virtual. During lock down she has taken part in the first of the virtual V-Art.Show s virtual open studios in real time. If you are missing the chance to see her work in real life, she invites you to enjoy her works here, and through the V-Art.show safely from your home, and while distribution systems are operating she gently reminds you that you do have the possibility to own and see them for real in your own homes. I wish you all well. Sarah Needham took part in The Other Art Fair in Brooklyn in November 2019, bring new work from her Making Decisions in the Dark Series. For an example of this work please refer to the painting “Haematite" in my listed works on this site. She has work in collections across the globe. As well being a graduate artist as Sarah has a Masters Degree in Development Studies. Sarah has spent her time developing a visual language that asks existential questions about how we can live now and how that relates to our past. To the stories both told and untold. Of the relationship between us as humanity that cross cultural and geographic boundaries through out the history of humanity.
