Collection: Sarah Rowe

Artist Statement

Sarah Rowe’s work centres on colour, shape and pattern, and the dynamic relationships between these elements. She approaches painting as a process of experimentation, exploring combinations of these fundamental components to create expressive and personal compositions.

Favouring strong, impactful colour and bold contrasts, her work often features forms that are juxtaposed into abstract landscapes or aerial perspectives, occasionally incorporating subtle figurative elements. With a background in textile design, Sarah brings a tactile sensibility to her practice, layering and collaging painted elements in a way that echoes the construction of fabric.

After returning to painting following an extended period focused on textile design, her work continues to be informed by interiors, textiles and artists known for their use of colour.
