Sara Heywood is a mixed media, research-based artist living in East London. Intrinsic to her practice is a collaborative dialogue between people and place, and the point where natural and manmade environments and materials converge or impact one another.
Heywood will be undertaking a residency at Chisenhale Studios’ Studio 4 from 19th August to the 29th September 2024.
During the residency, Sara plans to develop a new series of work that explores the boundaries of experimental analogue photographic developing processes using locally sourced natural and found materials. As a starting point, the project will research and be inspired by the work of the photographer and collagist Nigel Henderson, who lived at 46 Chisenhale Road in the 1940s and 50s.
