This digital drawing was based on photographs taken of shadows that form around the college and university buildings in Oxford. Together these layered shadow motifs create a series of memories of the built environment as I have experienced it. The shadow shapes that I use represent moments captured, as light moves across architectural surfaces. Sometimes these moments are intense as light both reveals and conceals details.

Notes
Sarah Wills-Brown is a UK based artist, with an MFA in Fine Art from Oxford Brookes University. Sarah’s multidisciplinary practice explores the transient dynamics of shadow within architectural environments and the symbolic and metaphorical narratives that these shadows can evoke within the individual. Sculptures and wall based abstract works evolve from her use of shadow shapes as a set of motifs, their surfaces enlivened by glimpses of colour, line, traces of material textures and pattern details. Combining hand drawn and digital elements, spray paint, collage and experimental printmaking, her works form a visual and sensory recollection of a physical presence in these spaces.
