Sarah Faux
Focused on the body, Sarah Faux merges abstraction and figuration in her paintings and works on paper, exploring every crevice and plane of the human form, while pushing beyond the perceived boundaries of her medium. The bodies in her compositions—male and female, primarily nude—rarely appear whole. Materials and gestures drive her practice, as does her desire to establish a visceral connection between viewers and her compositions: “My dream would be to…recreate an out-of-body experience, and to have somebody experience a painting as…this visceral part of themselves and another entity.”
Faux is based in Brooklyn, New York
