Sarah Jamison’s artwork represents her enduring interest in art history, culture, and digital media, and, recently, increasingly includes autobiographical elements. Expanding the artist’s repertoire of materials to include airbrush alongside colored pencil, acryla gouache, ink, and acrylic, each artwork probes themes that include expectations and realities, tropes and truths, and the pursuit of meaning. Sarah utilizes images sourced from the public domain and personal tokens; these objects operate as both symbol and narrative in her work.
Sarah Jamison is a fine artist based in Washington, DC. She received her BFA from the Corcoran College of Art + Design in 2010. Sarah has had solo exhibitions at IA&A at Hillyer, Latela Curatorial, and Capitol Hill Arts Workshop in Washington, DC in addition to A Hurd Gallery in Albuquerque, NM.
