Untitled 5, 2020-21 Archival digital pigment print on Belgian linen 54 x 44 x 2 in Unique + 1 AP
“Untitled 5” is from the Untitled digital painting series. This painting is experienced as a temporal object, where its materiality expands through time and space as a physical work and digital file. Each manifestation is not a separate version of the painting, but the painting itself, appearing in many forms and contexts. The painting consists of dozens of layers that build upon each other by cycling the painting through various 2D and 3D processes, where it acquires a patina of artifacts that reveal the natural tendencies and limitations of its materiality. Collectively, these artifacts build a multidimensional composition that reflects its own temporality and the conditions in which it was made.

Her work has been featured in Modern Painters, The New York Times, Art in America, Fiction Magazine, and Cultured Magazine. Sara lives and works in Placitas, New Mexico (at the time of this mint).
