After graduating with honours in Fine Art from Sunderland College of Art and Goldsmiths College, University of London, Sarah Porter taught painting and ceramics to further education students for two years before emigrating to Canada. She worked for a while as a graphic designer and illustrator before painting as she travelled spending five years in North Africa.
In 1994 she returned to England and has since travelled to Central America, Arabia and Africa, which have all provided inspiration for her richly coloured paintings of people, animals and symbolic references to past and present cultures. Repetitive motifs are a common theme throughout her work, reminding us of patterned textiles, all of which convey a happier and brighter world to which we might like to escape.
As well as exhibiting in London, the United States and Canada in solo and group shows, Sarah shows regularly with the Heifer Gallery, Highbury and has been a member of the organisation Five Women Artists Plus for several years.
