Interest in her work has continuously escalated since she graduated, with a solo show awarded next year at the Huddersfield Gallery in her hometown, and the solo show \u2018Secret Histories\u2019 just on at the Whistleblower gallery in Brighton \u2013\u00a0displaying an exciting new cycle of work. In 2022 a book of her paintings will be published. As well as being the recipient of the British Women Artists first prize in 2017, and selected winner by the University of Chichester in the Regional Fine Art Category (in the National Open Art Competition 2017) she has been short-listed for the Aesthetica, Jacksons and Threadneedle prizes among others notables in recent years. Since graduating, she\u2019s had over 30 group shows as well as 8 solo, evidencing a solid interest in her work.\u00a0<br><br>We\u2019re not surprised that Sarah\u2019s work is being increasingly sought after. It manifests some of the most enduring painterly qualities: vivacity of brushwork, subject matter that emerges tantalisingly from the abstract into human and animal figures, and a recent focus on intensely lucid colouring. Recently this has attracted a major commission of 16 works for an art hotel, and is collected by musicians Thom Yorke and Ronnie Wood. Through its sensitive attunement to oil paint\u2019s nature, Sarah\u2019s work recognises the forms \u2013\u00a0temporal, emotional, figurative \u2013\u00a0of our experience. Her paintings are a meeting \u2013\u00a0or as one title has it, a \u2018happening\u2019 \u2013 between elemental materials and the more complex beings that arise from them. It\u2019s the painter\u2019s process \u2013 striving, joyful \u2013 of perseverance in light of fleeting beauty. We are thrilled by her work, and delighted at the well-deserved traction it has gained<em> . <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Words by Maggie<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/newbloodart.com\/artist\/sarah-shaw\">See all available work by Sarah Shaw<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now is a crucial juncture in Sarah Shaw\u2019s career and a fantastic time to invest.
