Sarah Rose is an emerging artist based in Brooklyn whose work explores the interwoven relationship between earth, bodies, and time. Rooted in queer ecofeminist thought, their practice reimagines craft and sculpture as a means of coexisting with nature rather than extracting from it. Through the foraging of natural dyes and pigments, they create large scale woven tapestries and intimate sculptural interventions that draw on embodied histories of textile practices deeply rooted in ecological engagement. With this practice, she visually and materially blurs the boundaries between human and non-human, art and environment, and permanence and impermanence. In creating these landscapes of care, she reframes how we relate to our surroundings and acknowledges that we are all entangled in one large community of human and more than human life, shaped into meaning through our interactions with one another.
