arriving in France in 2001 she has had the possibility to pursue her own
work. She adores strong colours especially blues and turquoises which
have become her trademark. Main influences come from Egyptian and
Islamic art and particularly Indo-Saracennic- Architecture
She is a member of Ateliers d’Art de France as well as Touterre
Colour and form are an essential part of her work whether it be her famous blues or more practical domestic ware.
Sara
also delves into animal sculpture enjoying the challenge of bringing
clay to life with her realistic portrayals of animals from cats and dogs
through to dragons and frogs!
Recently
Sara has also started exploring the world of naked raku and is
fascinated by the aspect of chance involved in creating beautiful and
unpredictable results.
Sara
participates regularly in potters markets throughout France and further
afield as well as salons such as Ob’Art in Paris and exhibits in
various galleries such as Empreintes Paris."
