HOUSE NOTES

I first came across Sarah's work a few years ago at Renegade Chicago, an outdoor market featuring artists and designers from across the country. I was on the hunt for a vibrant abstract print when Sarah's booth literally stopped me in my tracks. As a lover of clean lines and bright colors, her work wasn't my typical style, yet for some reason I couldn't look away. It wasn't just the obvious draw of her impeccable craftsmanship or rich texture of her stitches, it was the feeling that each piece invoked. There was so much detail, so much life, so much warmth. I wanted to climb inside her roomscapes, pull a beautifully-stitched book off the shelves, and sit nestled in the plant-filled living scenes while sipping cocoa. After following Sarah on instagram and getting glimpses inside her home, I quickly saw where her inspiration comes from. Sarah's home is as warm and meticulously curated as the scenes she stitches. The gallery walls feel like collections of memories pieced together; I can hear the plants gently rustling from an open window; the warm colors create a sense of calm and peace. As we prepare for House Plants , Sarah's March 9th solo-exhibition in our Cincinnati space, I'm excited to get an even larger look inside her home and studio. Below, Sarah shares her space. Enjoy!
