Sarah Casey

Sarah Casey is an artist making drawings that test the limits of visibility and material existence. Over the past decade she has worked through collaboration with researchers from different disciplines from anatomy to astrophysics and archaeology to develop new methods of drawing that reflect on ideas of precarity.

She also writes on drawing and is co-author of Drawing Investigations: graphic relationships with science, culture and environment (Bloomsbury 2020), and guest editor of TRACEY: Drawing Anthropocene (forthcoming 2023). She was visiting research fellow at The Henry Moore Institute 2021-22 and is currently working with the Musées Cantonaux du Valais in Switzerland on a project responding to glacial archaeology in Switzerland.  She is Professor in Fine Art and its Histories at Lancaster University where she is Co-Director of the Practices research centre.
