Hidden by Gods

Sarah McCloskey is an Australian visual artist & illustrator currently
based in Fremantle.

Working primarily in graphite, ink and acrylics, her intricate drawings
and paintings aim to explore human emotion and connection. Her main
focus in recent years has been on creating whimsical and engaging
portraits of women, hoping to portray both fragility and strength whilst
maintaining a sense of familiarity through their realism. Another notable
feature of Sarah’s work is the use of motifs from the natural world, in
particular botanical elements, where she finds constant inspiration.
Sarah has exhibited widely in group shows across WA as well as in
select shows in Sydney and overseas.

In recent years, Sarah has been privately commissioned to complete
numerous large-scale public murals around Western Australia. Bringing
her work into the public sphere in this manner has seen her start to
reconsider her underlying themes and concepts and the way the works
can interact with the viewer, and this is something that she continues to
explore.
