Sadie Tierney

Date of birth 04.Oct.71
Country of residence United Kingdom

An artist and film maker, Tierney’s practice is based on experiences and relationship to locations which have an emotional resonance in terms of personal and collective memory; of territories and cultural landmarks: funfairs in England, airports, aeroplanes, and roller coasters in America. Prints, films, paints and pencils are all used as drawing media to explore her interest in the ways in which these spaces are shaped and reshaped by mankind and the transformations they undergo with the passage of time.

She studied at the Royal College of Art and in 2005 and 2006 received Arts Council Grants for Individuals Awards. Selected exhibitions include: 2006 A Beautiful South, Millais Gallery, Southampton. 2005 Nocturne, Sketch and Drawing Through Print, Rabley Drawing Centre, London. She teaches drawing at the School of Art and Design, Swindon College, and Rabley Drawing Centre.
