BIO: Sara Cunningham-Bell
Sara Cunningham-Bell employs the flower’s form, as a symbol of LIFE growing through adversary.
The work looks at the plethora of colour and pattern within the flower employing oil paint on canvas, bronze and found objects remembering how - its delicate infrastructure champions through frozen or hard ground to grow upwards beyond it, how each breed is part of a wider provision for a diverse community of fauna and flora. They positively communicate with the season’s character so to come into existence and be, physically dynamic. This work’s energy is driven by observing the vision and hope of people within our Community to enable others to be more like precious ‘flowers pushing through hard ground’.

Together we are positively More. The individual willows with Sculpture Heads, signed at the bottom, are sold separately at £120 each.
