Sarah Jane Palmer
Sarah Jane Palmer is a multi-disciplinary artist with a passion for sculpture, geometry, pattern, illusions and storytelling. Inspired by the unexpected, patterns in nature, dreams and historical archives – from the historical Nottingham lace trade to the romance of the circus – her sculpture, installations, films and designs for wallpaper, prints and textiles draw from her investigation which often comes with a bit of an unexpected twist.
Sarah has a depth of experience within many fields of making accumulated over the last 20 years including; sculpture, installation art, film, animation, prop making, theatrical mask making, designing hand printing wallpapers and wall-art. In 2004 she graduated with a BA (hons) Fine Art Degree in Painting and Printmaking, in 2013 received a Masters Degree in Fine Art with distinction.
Sarah is a freelance artists educator and teaches sculpture at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park. In 2016 she created the first animated wallpapers and established her wallpaper brand Muriel Design Ltd selling her designs to interior designers and private clients around the world.
