ABOUT SARA
Sara Knoll’s painting can be defined as experiential painting, which undergoes a very powerful process amidst a discourse between aesthetic beauty, shape and color. The style of her paintings is abstract and lyrical, and they are full of vitality and convey the artist’s optimistic inner self. She primarily paints with acrylics and oils, but also makes use of mixed techniques.
Her sculptures are styled and include figurative elements, expressing on one hand lightheartedness and humor, while profoundly examining human nature on the other. Sarah works in bronze, stone, plaster, wire and polyester.
Her works are displayed in individual shows, and she regularly takes part in group exhibitions as well. Sarah’s works have been sold to private collections both in Israel and throughout the world.
