about the artist

Sarah Emily Porter is an award-winning British artist whose practice explores colour, composition, and process. Working from her Leyton studio, she creates abstract works using gravity-led mechanisms that remove the artist’s hand, allowing materials to flow and settle naturally. Her pieces respond to the textures and histories of place, layering paint to echo the physical and emotional fabric of urban and natural environments. Through her innovative approach, Sarah Emily invites viewers to witness the quiet choreography between control, chance, and the forces of nature.

the story

‘Patchwork’ takes inspiration from the vibrant mix of cultures that define life in Waltham Forest. The bold interplay of colour reflects the borough’s energy and diversity. By layering and arranging these tones in rhythmic balance, Sarah echoes the essence of the community – a tapestry of different voices, patterns, and traditions, woven together into the rich and ever-evolving fabric of the borough.
