Sarah Madison – Stitching My way Through Life
October 2, 2023 @ 1:30 pm – 4:00 pm
Stitch in all forms has been part of Sarah’s life since the age of 11, thanks to the creative women around her; it’s been an enduring passion and has been her best friend through both good and stressful times. Travel with her from her first dress, through quilts to what inspires me now in my mixed media textile work.
Sarah is predominately a textile artist, but includes mixed media in her work. She learned creative embroidery skills with City and Guilds, gaining a coveted Highly Commended at the end of the programme, but has always taken a very fluid and organic approach to her work – no endless samples, just getting stuck in, working and letting it grow.
Sarah is always learning and trying to move in her own style and way – rules are there to be broken!
Since completing her C&G Sarah has had successful solo exhibitions in Hampshire, exhibited with group in Suffolk and has been a part of the wonderful Art Arcade crew at Folk East. Sarah now works alongside six other textile artists in a new group – The Alchemists’ Needle – who had their first show late last 2022.
Sarah lives near the Hampshire/ Wiltshire border and is constantly inspired by the ancient landscapes around her and their spirituality. she is mad about hares, crows, standing stones and Suffolk.
