Hi, I’m Sarah Vulture.
I am an artist based in
Southern California.
Artist bio:
Sarah Vulture (b. 1988, CA) is a multidisciplinary artist who creates with a variety of media including acrylic, watercolor, oils, colored pencil, graphite, and mixed media assemblage which can include animal skeletons and taxidermy. When she isn’t working on wildlife illustrations, her more personal work explores themes of grief, loneliness, empathy and the darkness of humanity. Sarah was born and raised in Southern California and lived most of her life within the Inland Empire. She received her B.A. in Studio Art from CSU Fullerton and is currently working on her M.F.A. in studio art at CSU San Bernardino.
Artist Statement:
My practice dives into the emotional undercurrents of the personal trauma of my childhood and the horrors of the external world. I am driven by a sense that a literal depiction of specific events is insufficient in capturing the emotional realities of not only my own experiences, but the human condition in general. I use birds, gravestones, the moodiness of clouds, and other symbolism as my language. Through symbolic messages and meanings of various species of birds, my psychologically charged paintings give voice to the invisible facets of existence.
