i chose to do a presentation on her last year in gregory volk’s critical issues class.. and it was hard to limit myself to ten minutes. i could talk about her genius for hours. everything she does is chaotic, big, sprawling, dynamic, interesting, etc. etc. etc., but nothing she does is ever the same. yet she uses the same materials over and over again. i have so much respect for artists who are able find a new way to make every piece different and interesting, yet have a consistent and coherent body of work.
she uses whats available to her, and she transforms her materials she can turn plastic bottles and paper clips into something interesting. and she challenges herself.. i read an interview with her in which she explained that she writes down one rule for every piece she works on. for her piece “Second Means of Egress (Yellow),” she limited herself to one material. a huge limitation, but still, the piece is consistent with her others.](http://www.sarahsze.com/projects/Cartier_1999/Cartier_Images/SarahSze-0001_23.jpg)
