the work I make is a response firstly to finding
joy and silliness in the small stuff and the everyday forgotten​

​
The denial and disconnected aspects of the urban or ego-driven human are revealed through our need to show off /and to distract ourselves into a comfortable, abundant glut of information and possessions.
​
Sometimes I document things in my home-studio through a corresponding and escalating collection of watercolours. Although I try not to buy new plastic things for my own homeloading I am drawn to it as if it were honey.

Sandra is a Sydney-based artist who relishes the process of re-layering her handmade images of the everyday alongside a candy allsorts of street throw-outs to form playful, eco-relational installations.
​
Sandra has participated widely in artist residency programs, exhibitions and collaborative projects. I Give To You the Palaces of Montezuma (title from a Grinderman love song) was shaped into something like a Christmas bauble for the SLOT window gallery in Redfern, partly as a tribute to the years when she was the proprietor of the sassy vintage shop Broadway Betty in the 2000s.
