Sarah Albisser

PicturePerception Acrylic, silver leave and board on board, 50 x 60 cm, SOLD
Sarah Albisser was born in Switzerland 1976. She completed her studies as a contemporary dancer in 1996 at the Merce Cunningham Studio in New York. Her career as an independent dancer and choreographer includes founding the dance theatre company Waterproof in 2001.

She received a certificate in art from Farbmuehle in Lucerne, Switzerland in 2006 followed by a one year painting course at the Art Station in Auckland, New Zealand. Since then Sarah has been developing her style and technique. Her artwork has been exhibited in Switzerland, New Zealand and Los Angeles and is being held in private collections around the world.


I have been experimenting with black and white portraits over the past ten years. Fascination with faces, expressions, body and gesture has been a life long experience for me. In my work I capture feelings, moods and mental states. Our character is reflected through small, individual, unique but significant gestures which can change over time or sometimes even get stronger. In the past I have never used images or photos of faces, most of my portraits are developed through improvisation. Working with the same theme over a long period of time has given me a wider view of possibilities. My work is inspired by strong female characters, who are original, have a powerful presence.
