Sarah Z. Short is a multidisciplinary artist based in Richmond, Rhode Island. Residing in the woods informs her practice — this quiet place is where she creates her collages from vintage materials. Old papers are Sarah’s favourite, like the ragged edges of a worn book cover and the marks that readers leave on the pages over time. The beauty in these vintage materials comes from the history that we’re unaware of, but Sarah’s work gives them new life. We recommend zooming in to get an idea of how this work comes to life in person. The texture and depth created by the layers of vintage paper offers a stunning semblance of dimension — only able to be fully conveyed through this original work.
