Sarah Pickett

I am a printmaker whose work is a mix of whimsical pieces that focus on animals and more serious pieces that focus on how one’s method of movement through a landscape impacts one’s perception of and how it is remembered. Those works include: pieces about memories sparked by location; pieces about forgetting details of the places we have been; pieces based on the satellite imagery of places important to me; and pieces about the interconnectedness of different places and the way memories of those places intermingle in my mind. All these ideas stem from my love of hiking and camping as well as my background in biology and interest in the natural world. While all my work relates to nature, there is a lot of variety in how I represent that. Most pieces are to an extent realistic, but my satellite image-based pieces are abstract and focus on pattern and texture. My methods are firmly based in printmaking and also include textiles and embroidery. My favorite and most used techniques include relief printing, screenprinting, and photolithography.
