Artists' Profiles
Sarah J Trigg
It is the seemingly insignificant things that constitute the raw material and subject matter of my work - fleeting gestures, old photographs of unknown people, squashed paperclips, ephemeral inscriptions on greetings cards. These found objects and captured moments fascinate me because they have no obvious lasting value but are charged with hidden histories, memories and significance. Drawing upon shared experience of that which appears inconsequential , subtle interventions are made to explore issues surrounding identity, investigating the ways in which value judgements are formed.
Working from my Studio in Bristol, my practice ranges from intricately observed drawing and painting, to interactive installations, artist multiples and book works.
Trigger editions is soon to be showcasing and selling the work several other artists. Their profiles will appear here soon.
