BIOGRAPHY
노팅험 추신의 작가 사라 커닝햄(Sarah Cunningham)은 상상 속의 황야와 끊임없이 변화하는 숲속 풍경을 통해 삶과 본질을 탐구한다. 층을 이루는 빛과 색으로 연출된 꽃, 햇빛, 하늘, 물 등의 요소가 신비로운 자연 공간을 표현한다. 사라 커닝햄의 작품에서는 동일한 작업의 반복이 두드러지며, 이는 자연의 숨겨진 부분을 드러내기 위한 지속적인 몸짓으로 볼 수 있다.
1993년 노팅엄에서 태어난 커닝햄은 현재 런던에서 작업 및 거주중이며, 2022년 로열컬리지오브아트(Royal College of Art)에서 회화 석사(MA) 학위를 취득했다. 그녀의 작품은 아스펜, 베를린, 로스앤젤레스, 뉴욕, 밴쿠버의 알민레쉬(Almine Rech), 맥스 헤츨러(Max Hetzler), CICA 밴쿠버 등에서 소개되었다. 2019년에는 알리 H. 알카지 장학금(Ali H. Alkazzi Scholarship Award)과 잔골리 미술상(Djanogly Art Award)을 수상하며, 독창적인 예술 세계를 인정받았다.
Born in Nottingham, Sarah Cunningham explores the essential and the living through imagined wilderness and ever-changing forest landscapes. Using layers of light and colour, she expresses the mysterious spaces of nature through elements such as flowers, light, sky, and water. Her work emerges from a repetitive process, which can be seen as a continuous gesture aimed at revealing the hidden aspects of nature.
Cunningham was born in Nottingham in 1993 and lives and works in London. She received an MA in Painting from Royal College of Art in 2022. Her work has been included in numerous exhibitions in Aspen, Berlin, Los Angeles, New York and Vancouver at Almine Rech, Max Hetzler and the CICA Vancouver among others. She is the recipient of the Ali H. Alkazzi Scholarship Award (2019) and the Djanogly Art Award (2019).
