Sarah Bridgland

Date of birth 09.Aug.82
Place of birth Cambridge
Country of residence United Kingdom
Contact sarahbridgland@hotmail.com

Sarah Bridgland is known for her pop-up assemblages of miniscule paper cut outs - comic book speech-bubbles, graphic symbols, flower watercolours all competing for our attention and switching back and forth between popular culture and the history of art. This 3 dimensional clutter of scalped paper meticulously overflows out of vessels in the form of gunned toy soldiers and matchboxes. Bridgland’s work fascinates by transforming her outsiderist obsession with the insubstantial through a mesmerising level of deft technique into objects that are extreme, ordered, detailed and intense.
