Sarah Rose

Sarah Rose works in sculpture, sound, installation and expanded forms of publishing. Her interests lie in what is considered ephemeral but has lasting impacts and residues. In her practice, materials move in and out of abstractions, intimately tracing material states and temporalities, including those existing at the edges of perception. The work draws from ecological and environmental experiences, narratives and histories that foreground interconnections and entangled conditions. 


Sarah Rose lives in Glasgow. Recent exhibitions include Talbot Rice Gallery, Edinburgh; Scottish Museum of Modern Art, Edinburgh; CCA (Centre for Contemporary Arts) Glasgow; Hospitalfield, Arbroath, Scotland; Darling Foundry, Montreal; SWG3 Gallery, Glasgow; Baltic 39, Newcastle upon Tyne; and Elizabeth Foundation Project Space, New York. Rose participated in the Kamias Triennial in Manila, Philippines in 2020 and the Brent Biennial, London 2022.. Rose was artist in residence at Edinburgh Sculpture Workshop; Little Sparta; Hospitalfield, The Banff Centre; Geumcheon Art Space; and Gasworks. She is an RSA recipient of a residency at Northlands Glass.
