Sarah French Danilson

Sarah is an Oregon based mixed media artist.

She explores parallels that exist between processes in nature and personal experience. Nature's ability to create something society finds as aesthetically pleasing out of a violent process or heal after trauma is of particular interest to her. Her work is a representation of these natural events. She finds value in acknowledging the circumstances which we have been confronted with and using it to give energy to a progressive intention. She uses creativity to gain agency and control over her lived experiences.
