Oxmarket are delighted to welcome Sara Hill to the John Rank for her first exhibition in Chichester. Sara’s work is a mixture of oils on canvas and detailed drawings portraying seas and the natural world. 

Sara reflects on the Victorians who had a penchant for using birds and beetles as fashion items, leading some to the brink of extinction. Sara prefers to honor wildlife as subjects to incorporate into her paintings, she feels there is a strength in nature that we can harness to enrich our lives and our creativity. Sara’s intention is to draw the observer in to discover a hidden world that isn’t immediately obvious, taking time to absorb the intricacies in the artworks. 

Sara has had over 100 exhibitions, mostly solo, across the UK and Berlin and sells her paintings worldwide, her work has also appeared many times on TV’s BBC1 and 2, ITV1 and the Disney Channel and Sara has a permanent corporate exhibition in Brighton.

Last year Sara made the reckless decision to have her own personal Bonfire of the Vanities and burned around four dozen paintings. She found the experience cathartic and in doing so has made her current body of work more relevant.
