Sarah Catterall (b.1999) is an artist, photographer and filmmaker from Sheffield (UK) and Seattle, WA (USA). They currently live and work in Oxford, UK.

Their visual language collages a variety of mediums such as printmaking, painting, frottage, automatic writing, drawing from observation, textiles and photography. Curiosity drives their intuition as they work with different materials, mediums, sites and collaborators.

Utilising the language of cinema through their practice, projects are ‘montaged’ as they study, alter, conflate and repeat imagery. They gather the assorted moments from the past to the present. Assorted as in varied, yet co-existing and wonderfully complex. They concern themselves with these layers as they drape and bundle and play.

Listen! The fragments speak amongst themselves –
