Sara MacKillop

Sara MacKillop consciously mutes her materials by juxtaposing sculpture that may at first glance resemble the residue of absent-minded play with harder supportive elements. MacKillop presents her work with a subtle economy, elevating it to a kind of formal narrative by lifting it out of the environs of the car boot sale. She prefers to allude to the unsaid, the hesitant and the inconclusive, without shirking from the kind of resolutions that the relationships between the maker, the viewer and the art object demand.
