Medium:
Mixed Media 2D Sara Eberhart uses natural indigo and other dyes to create abstract landscapes in linen, wool, and paper. She also uses cyanotype processes to create collage pieces.
“Dyeing with indigo is an ancient practice in which you dip your material into a vat of dye, take it out and it is green. Then, it oxidizes and turns blue. Darker hues are accomplished through multiple dips and oxidize patterns.
“I get inspired to create from a beautiful place or person, other artists, and ideas like freedom or my aspirations,” she says.
Get to know Sara better:
Titles of works can be descriptive or clever or totally unrelated. What's your favorite title of a piece you've named? Why?
I like to title work after names of songs I listen to while creating. I named a piece "I Am Wilderness" after a line in a Neko Case song, "I’m not a mess, I am Wilderness". I felt this aptly described the feeling of the collage.
Where is the most beautiful place you’ve ever been?
My mom’s house.
What is the best gift you have ever received?
In some ways, the pandemic was my best gift. It taught me to practice more grace with myself and to let go of things that no longer serve me.
