Sarah Bienvenu
About the Artist
For thirty years, Sarah Bienvenu's experiences painting and exploring New Mexico's mountains, canyons, and deserts have given her a unique ability to disentangle and interpret these past layers of change. Being attuned to natural abstract shapes that form on the land, abstractions--the undulations of a dry riverbed, the jaggedness of rock against sky — is where abstraction becomes detail: detail of texture, shape, light, color, and composition.
