Sarah Dietz (1995)
– visual artist based in The Hague –
The works Sarah creates are closely related to herself. Often it shows an inner world that deals with fear, vulnerability, discomfort and melancholy. In her work she is looking for the emotional non- tangible reality, one that we all have to deal with but that is sometimes hard to find or to connect with in this digital age.
Her work mainly consists of drawings. Drawing is very important to her, it is a way to make everything that is around her and inside her logical and understandable. The decisiveness, the directness and the meditative aspects that the medium represents for her add an extra layer to the subjects that she often touches upon in her work. The labor-intensive nature of the work and the fact that you can clearly see the time that has gone into it also add to this.
Besides that she also finds herself interested in old paper. She has a big collection which she is also often using for making her works. The old paper piqued her interest because of its tactility, fragility and the connection to another time.
