Sarah Isolde Phelan

 

Phelan is a interdisciplinary artist who uses analogue print & fax technologies to explore notions of the abstracted archive, and question what we really mean when we talk about modernising and digitising the archive. Her work sets out to discover experimental ways of documenting day-to-day life by using thermal ‘throw-away’ printers (found in schools, libraries and offices) to create new forms of art, and in-doing so expand ideas around what contemporary printmaking is, and how it can be used to re-engage people with technology as a form of artistic play. 

Sarah will take up residence at Can Serrat in September 2024.
