Sara Conca is a self taught New York based artist of French and Native American heritage who grew up in Southern Florida. Sara credits her family's penchant for relocating several times during her childhood with inspiring her appreciation for changing environments and settings. By the age of 17, Sara was living and working in Paris, an experience, she says, that only reinforced her appreciation for movement, energy and art. Throughout the past 13 years in Manhattan, Sara has experimented with a wide variety of art mediums and forms of expression, yet her painting and sculpture practices have remained consistent, bringing her to a visual and skilled fluency with her mediums of choice. Sara's well regarded works have been sold to many private collectors and she has had a number of solo and group exhibitions, including The Soho D&H Gallery Solo Shows, The Henry Gregg Gallery Compilation Show, Chelsea Art Gallery 32, Mansion NY, Le Bilboquet, Ted Gibson NY,Decor Art Gallery NY and Bo Concepts Designs stores on Madison and Uptown. Sara has also sold and displayed artwork in Europe and most recently Indonesia. SARA'S ARTIST STATEMENT "My art is intended to allow viewers to forget about their everyday world and instantaneously become immersed in their own interpretations of the visual and emotional energies that I have devoted to each piece. My works are mostly a process of textures and layering to achieve constant movement of energy that will give back and sooth you as time goes on. Art, being a response to society, has the potential to serve as it's mirror, and at the same time point towards what is behind it. My work projects a desire for equilibrium with the physical world and a union with each viewer. Depending on one's willingness and aptitude to be guided by their sensations, my creations can lead one away from what is present in their minds into an alternate and self created reality filled with color and feeling."
