SARAH MONTGOMERY
Montgomery is a Tasmanian born artist and printmaker working in Sydney. She is Sydney Road Gallery’s curator, with a keen eye for detail and a passion for working with creatives to extend their professional art practice. Sarah also owns ArtSmart, a local Artstore and framing business in Seaforth. She advises artists and customers on creating, framing and hanging fine-art.
As a printmaker, Etching is at the heart of her multimedia art practice, where she hopes to generate interest in the environment and natural world. She is drawn to the slow process of mark making, creating etched layers and tones in copper. The imagery builds with many small elements, sketched seed pods with curled edges and delicate lines, overlays of embossed shapes. Burred, black, brittle stems, contrast with white spaces and circle motifs. These signature marks describe places and allow personal interpretation.
There is a story, it is your own . . .
Journal entry:
“The ink glides smoothly across the plate, the contours and hollows softened with mustard hues, and steely greys. The drawings overlap and many lines give shape to a detailed printing plate, a new story begins, measured by moments of observation.”
