Sarah Fitzgerald is a Sydney based
artist and architect, currently completing a Masters in Fine Art at the
National Art School. As part of her research and practice Sarah is completing
numerous, successive, site-specific wall paintings in her studio at NAS and also
at external venues. For ArticulateUpstairs
Sarah has conceived of a wall painting that depicts a series of mathematical
and text based signs that may also be associated with other cultural signs,
such as 'X' as a sign which marks the spot or as a symbol for a kiss.
Fitzgerald treats these symbols as universal, so that they can be taken to mean
many things at once. Her wall-painting can be read as an abstract minimal work,
or a love poem, depending entirely on the viewers inclination.
