A visually-grasping display of geometric art work inspired by religion and mythology have gone on display.
Entitled ’Bearings’, Sarah Brown has unveiled her collection of mathematically-crafted artwork at Mother T’s community gallery, Laxey.
Most of the work has been created over the past three years, during which Sarah, who creates under the name of Sarah L. Shenanigans, underwent a series of life changing events, including undergoing treatment for breast cancer and mental health issues.
Sarah used art therapy during her treatment. That led to her discovering something which has fundamentally inspired the way she creates her art work.
