Sarah Strachan.
Sarah Strachan is a transdisciplinary artist who explores her ideas through printmaking, painting and ceramics; often fusing sound or moving image into the final installation.
In her practice, Sarah senses environmental changes through deep conversations with people, place, the land and the materials and objects associated with these. Her interest lies in how our perception of being in, knowing and belonging to the world affects our ecological awareness and thinking. Sarah studied BA and MA Fine Art at Cambridge School of Art (2017-22). Selected recent group exhibitions include: Fresh at the British Ceramic Biennial, Stoke-on-Trent (2021); London Art Biennale (2021); Newplatform.art, online (2022); Fresh Air Sculpture, Quenington (2022); and Ruskin Gallery, Cambridge (2022). Sarah has won the Sustainability Art Prize at Anglia Ruskin University for the past two years (2021/2022) and won first prize at the ArtNumber23 Open Contest in Athens (2020). She was recently awarded the The Arts Scholars Curwen Printmaking Bursary, alongside Ayeshah Zolghadr (2022).
Ayeshah Zolghadr.
Ayeshah Zolghadr is an artist working at the interface of printmaking. Her practice is concerned with exploring relationships and communication through the repetitive action of printmaking.
Ayeshah is heavily influenced by an architectural background, mathematical investigations and an interest in augmenting digital technologies. Working across parallel processes, she is interested in unforeseen shifts that occur from translating experimental print-based works into 3D forms and back again. She studied BA Architecture at University of Sheffield (2005-09) and MA Printmaking at Cambridge School of Art (2019-22). Selected recent groups exhibitions include: Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize Exhibition, Dundee, Bournemouth and London (2020-21); Ruskin Gallery, Cambridge (2021); University Arms Hotel, Cambridge (2022); Grafton Centre, Cambridge (2022); and Ruskin Gallery, Cambridge (2022) .
