120. Sarah Cain

Artist Sarah Cain creates playful, abstract paintings and installations
that feature a bold use of color, improvisation, and a variety of
perspectives. Cain redefines abstraction in feminist terms as an
architecture for transformative, embodied, emotive experience –
intentionally subverting male-dominated art historical traditions. Known for expansive, site-specific murals, often she makes decisions about
the palette, gestures, and composition onsite.

She and Zuckerman spoke about personal relationships with the past,
site-specific projects, how color operates as a tool, physical space,
engaging with art, the lineage of abstract painters, the relationship
between titles and images, and how we can find awe in our daily lives!
