BOOMER GALLERY MAGAZINE | FIRST EDITION | THE NEW ARTIST
In the last hundred years humankind has seen unprecedented innovations and changes- from skyscrapers to moon landing to social media to human rights to Art. In this very moment in our society everything moves really fast, time doesn’t seem sufficient anymore, artists seem to find their path much harder, the ongoing changes create a need for a continuous state of Transcendence. The aim of this publication is to find out what’s the trend in contemporary art and to create a dialogue between the artists and the viewers. In our first edition we have the honour of presenting 185 artists from all around the world. Their works and biographies are truly amazing and inspiring and we really hope you will enjoy reading it.

Sarah Bird
Sarah Bird’s collages are made up of photographs of domestic
surroundings that have been fragmented, digitally distorted
and re-composed as abstract artworks. They follow the
tradition of artists meditating upon the theme of ‘home’,
re-imagined for the digital age. They explore architecture and
community: the places we inhabit and share. Bird uses veils of
vivid colour to blend real with imagined,
making the familiar, alien.
@sj8ird
Windows and doorways are common motifs that mark thresholds,
the liminal points of boundary and change. The weave
of a curtain dissolves into pixels; the view through a window
reveals nothing.
Bird is drawn to things that show traces of human action over
time: the layers of paint and wallpaper, or imprints on a bedsheet.
These are symbolic of narratives becoming distorted,
entrenched and even oppressive over time. They reflect the
fragmented way in which we pass on and take in information in
the digital age.
Sarah Bird studied at Goldsmith’s College and lives and works
in London. She exhibits regularly and her work
is held in private collections in the UK and USA.
Her work has been used on an album cover for
Japanese artist Brockbeats and she has been
shortlisted for the Apthorp Prize.
