Sarah Mufford is an artist based in Regional NSW, Australia. With interests across ornamentation and geometry, she is a regular finalist in national art prizes including the Alice Prize, Hazelhurst Art on Paper, Jacaranda Acquisitive Drawing Award and has work in the State Library of NSW, Coffs Harbour Regional Gallery and private collections.
Sarah’s 25-year professional arts practice is informed by mathematical and scientific analysis of pattern. It includes recent research projects and residencies in Italy, Iran, India and Spain. Working predominantly in 2D, her labour-intensive, geometric abstractions are informed by Eastern and Western pattern systems, juxtaposing intuitive processes of staining and mark making with hard edge geometry.
