Sarah Faux 莎拉·福克斯, More 更多, 2022

Sarah Faux’s paintings uniquely blend figuration and abstraction, dissolving bodies into fluid gestures and sensuous color fields that hover between recognition and ambiguity. “More” (2022) is a painting created in a single, uninterrupted session—a one-shot piece driven by focus and immediacy. Faux's small paintings serve as fleeting glimpses of moments where the body spills beyond its own boundaries, defying containment. On this work, she was reflecting on excess, on the ever-present gap between desire and reality, and the way we constantly crave more—more sensuality, more pleasure, more color, more chaos. Our bodies, messy and unpredictable, accompany us through life in ways we cannot always control.

Sarah Faux has held solo exhibitions at Hales Gallery (NYC), M+B (Los Angeles), Capsule Shanghai (Shanghai), and Stems Gallery (Brussels), among others. She has shown in numerous group exhibitions including at Her Clique (Lisbon), Sim Smith (London), Loyal Gallery (Stockholm), Althius Hofland Fine Arts (Amsterdam), Fredericks & Freiser (NYC), and The New York Studio School (NYC). Faux’s paintings have been written about in Artsy, Cultured Magazine, Modern Painters, Hyperallergic, i-D Vice, Lux, Surface and more. Faux has been the recipient of many residencies and grants, including a Pollock-Krasner Foundation Grant (2023), a Keyholder Fellowship at the Lower East Side Printshop, NYC (2018-19), artist residencies at Yaddo, Saratoga Springs, NY (2017, 2012) and the Yale School of Art’s Gloucester Painting Prize, Gloucester, MA (2014). Sarah Faux holds an MFA in Painting from Yale University and a joint BA/BFA from Brown University and the Rhode Island School of Design. She was born in Boston, MA, and lives and works in Brooklyn, NY.

莎拉·福克斯（Sarah Faux）的绘画独特地融合了具象与抽象。她以流畅的笔触与感性的色彩，将画笔下塑造的身体溶解在形与意的边界之间，游离于清晰与混沌的状态之中。她的作品《更多》（More, 2022）是在一次不间断的绘画过程中完成的，一气呵成，充满专注与即时的能量。福克斯的小幅画作仿若对短暂瞬间的捕捉 —— 身体超越自身的边界，挣脱束缚，渗透至画面的每一寸肌理。在这幅作品中，她思考着“过度”的意义，探讨着欲望与现实之间永恒的落差，以及我们对“更多”的无尽渴求 —— 更多的感官刺激，更多的愉悦，更多的色彩，更多的混沌。我们的身体，杂乱而不可预测，以一种无法被掌握的姿态与我们同行于生命旅程之中。
