Sara Lamond
Sara is a local girl who somehow found herself on the other side of the world 25 years ago with an IT career. That’s where the art began for her – for the last 25 years Sara has been exploring various mediums, seeking the materials and techniques that felt right for her. In 2021 she gave up her successful career in IT to return home to Cape Breton and pursue her art full time.
Today Sara lives with her husband Brian in Fourchu, where she draws inspiration from the natural world and the way it can evoke emotional responses in us. Through her use of various materials and techniques to create abstract works, she aims to capture the raw and visceral qualities of these emotions and translate them into visual form.
Sara is a multi-disciplinary artist, with works in mixed media abstract paintings, prints, photography, and most recently collage. She also uses some of her artwork as a launching point for her own line of clothing and accessories.
