Artist Profile: Sarah Goffman

_DSC7705Sarah Goffman has extensive exhibition history since 1992, in Australia and overseas.  Her large range of works centre around site-specific projects and installation with mixed media; predominantly using trash and found objects which she transforms and re-contextualises focusing on consumer exchanges and the metaphysical.  She also writes and performs as Lucy the psychiatrist from the cartoon “Peanuts”.  In the last four years she has been a recipient of various Japanese residencies, looking at customs and aesthetics.  Her work has graduated as a result of this, including performance and video rituals.

Career highlights include Paradise Found at Tin Sheds Gallery, Trashcan Dreams with The Performance Space, Situation at the MCA and a solo show Plastici at Penrith Regional Gallery, converting Margot Lewer’s home into a Japanese show room.   Most recently Sarah has exhibited a series of past and present works at Gallery 9, Maximalist Tokonoma. She is currently undertaking a Doctorate in Creative Arts at the University of Wollongong.
