Sara
Garden Armstrong: Threads and Layers presents the work of the
artist in her multiple forms of expression, from paintings and drawings to
stunning photography, Work that is filled with rich visuals and artistry
texture is presented in this collection, and
through this presentation, readers get a deeper appreciation of both the artist
and her work and the connections between her different forms of art. The book
features not only Sara's work but essays from pros in the field, commentaries
that help readers connect with the soul of the artist, and images that are
impregnated with artistic symbolism.
This
book establishes the authority of Sara Armstrong as a gifted artist, a
visionary imbued with effusive imagination. Dan R. Talley explores the
interdisciplinary presence in the art of Sara Garden Armstrong; Alan Bruton
lets Sara speak in ''A Conversation with Sara Garden Armstrong;''
Daniel White discusses the artist's process in ''Persistent
Uncertainty,'' and other writers delve into the different aspects of Sara's
art. Readers will appreciate the delightful collection of works on paper (1983
- 1993) and mixed media (1995 – 2020). Sara's work doesn't leave an easy and
quick interpretation; it is work that has deeper layers and readers are invited
to pause and ponder on them as they uncover thread after thread of the
realities the artist portrays in her work. It is irresistibly inviting,
stunningly imaginative, and a work of pure beauty. The essays in this
collection are powerful, filled with insights about art and informative
commentaries on Sara’s work. There are such works that leave viewers and
readers speechless and utterly absorbed, and Sara’s is one of such works. It
defies commentary, merely transporting readers and viewers into the
conceptualized world depicted in the art.
