Artist Statement
<div class="field two columns alpha">I make paintings centering around my daily life. I paint what I know or think I know about the everyday experience of being alive. The paintings tend to explore the intimacy of domestic space The quieter familiar and private moments at home or abroad. I paint self portraits and portraits of my husband and child. They reflect part of the ritual or routine of life. This is the world of my home, wherever that maybe. I work from photos but also from the memory of those moments. It is what is there and sometimes from what I want to be there. Like any work from life there are a lot of truths and untruths.</div>

Artist Statement
As a contemporary artist, I create based on visuals concepts of the imagination and real life. Including abstract techniques in my portraits and other pieces, allows room for the audience to connect to each body of work and identify themselves somewhere in the storyline. Uniquely I chose to opt out of outlining as done in my previous works, and focused on using bold color choices. My art represents my story, but I know it’s a story many know well. <br /><br />In my Mother and Son series, I hope to reflect the honesty and beauty of motherhood, the ugly too. It’s far from perfect for any parent. No matter what walk of life you come from, this series is personal, it’s transgenerational, it’s ours. Mother and Son is a reminder that I’m not alone in this everchanging journey and makes light of precious fleeting moments along the way.

Artist Statement
Saskia Saunders creates textural artworks using domestic materials, such as string, household linens and paint, that are metaphors for the fragility of life. This triptych of monoprints explores the ebb and flow of Saunders' identity, at times all consumed by motherhood, at times emboldened by it. The print blocks were created from nappy sacks wrapped around baby car seat packaging, the detritus of Saunders' day to day life as a mother.
From her travels in Japan, Saunders is inspired by the concepts of negative space (Ma) and embracing imperfections (Wabi-sabi).Creating space in each piece for the mind to focus, notice details and the light between.
Saunders' work is strongly linked to a sense of place, the home. Her art is an invitation to experience a calm pause, a moment of contemplation in a world of clutter and noise.
Saunders achieved a First Class degree Woven Textiles at the University of Brighton and has worked with woven textile design companies and social enterprises in New York, China and Cambodia.
