About
Sara Sonas is a visual artist who explores materials in relation
to their physicality and tactility.
When constructing works, she perceives herself as a
receptor; interacting between her environmental and material
surroundings while reflecting on existence, transience and
our relationship to nature.
Observing, analysing and responding to daily life through
dialogue with nature, she reinstates the concept of cyclicity,
aiming to find balance and harmony within her work.
LOST - a feeling…a process, a transition?
The enchanted forest whispered: ‘in order to find yourself,
you have to get lost in the forest every day’,
and so the journey within continued.
Frustrated and tired when unable to find the way out, nothing
else is left to do… but to - let go. Surrender.
Signs appear. Hear. the leaves rustling.
And the way out is there. Just there, in-front of- you.
