Now My Eyes Can See: Sally Minns Solo Show
15th April - 20th April
Sally is a London-based artist who studied painting at The Heatherley School of Fine Art, receiving a commendation for her research-based practice during the Portrait Diploma. She was awarded a Scholarship by The Worshipful Company of Painter-Stainers, to complete The Post-Diploma in Figurative Painting, graduating in September 2022.
Sally's practice is rooted in research and observational drawing, from which she develops imagined narratives that raise debate around societal issues. Inspiration is found in multiple sources including current affairs, art history, literature, film, and music.
“For me, the act of painting is the crossroads where my drawing, inspiration, internal dialogue, and prevalent societal issues meet. It is a thinking space. A fully immersive experience of the process until the final representation becomes apparent. Through the application of paint and choice of imagery, my work explores themes of power and control, debating how global patriarchal structures propagate oppression, misogyny, and abuse”.
Sally is also Gallery Manager and Business Partner at RuptureXIBIT along with being an Artist in Residence.
