most often Sara’s work is derived and inspired by a variety of cultures namely Nigerian, British and Japanese.
Sara graduated from Berkshire College of Art and Design and later graduated with a BA (Hons) in Interior Architecture and uses her artwork as a backdrop for the inspiration behind her interior settings.
With a background in fashion and textiles, Sara will at times incorporate elements of fabric print and pattern from Nigeria and Japan within her artwork. Her preference is for indigo dyed fabric patterns and the language of the Nigerian people of Cross River state as well as Japanese influences, these influences can be seen across her work.
Sara predominately uses oil paints, a medium inherited from her grandmother Nora Majekodunmi who was a pivotal figure in Lagos, Nigeria’s art circles in the 1960’s. Nora Majekodunmi was appointed to the selection committee for the Nigerian Art Exhibitions that formed part of the independent celebrations of that year. Nora Majekodunmi was also a strong supporter and patron of the Zaria Art Society and many years later, some of her work was sold at Bonham’s auctioneers in London in 2023. As a result of Sara’s heritage, Sara’s art works hold artistic legacy and cultural significance.
There is an expressive quality to Sara’s art that suggests a heartfelt connection between artist and subject, and being a multi-disciplined artist, her artwork of many facets including stunning figurative and abstract art is in both private and corporate collections in UK, Europe, Africa, Japan, Asia and North America.
Sara will be exhibiting at the historic Chelsea Town Hall for the Untitled Art Fair in London in 2025.
