About Sara

Through the ploy of intergenerationally passed down recipes and stories from women in her family, Sara examines the relationship between the personal and social in art through food. She centres collective care to playfully decipher feelings of otherness by forging a new space within pre-existing ones, an act of both reclamation and remapping her history.

Her interdisciplinary approach predominantly utilises installation to move between a socially engaged and experimental filmmaking-based practice. These installations operate as intimately curated sites of nurture that invite conversations and spaces for both artists and non-artists to co-exist. Sitting within this horizontal plane are stories both nostalgic and unknown. Motivated by the agency this gives back to the otherwise passive viewer, the public is often invited to physically interact with her works.

Sara is ½ of the curatorial collective Otherly, formed alongside artist Morisha Moodley. The two friends, recognised for their friendly and non-hierarchical approach to curation, seek to create an alternate platform that nourishes ideas of genuine collaboration, support and networking for creatives of colour at the early stages of their careers and those more established.
