Sarah relocated to Margate to join Open School East, where she furthered her research into weaving, looking at ideas around time, space and structural forms. This was explored further in the practical workshop with Yemi Awosile looking at our relationship with cloth and the material world. She also worked with fellow Associates Dipesh Pandya and Antonia Luxem on the Thoughts on Space strand of the public programme, where she devised a workshop with Barby Asante questioning our relationship to space, identity and race.

She also contributed to the 4th OSE radio show at Radio Margate, playing sound clips of power looms, waulking songs and extracts from Sadie Plant’s Zeros + ones. Throughout the year Sarah worked on the Despacito Art School, delivering and organising workshops for the young people of Athelstan Road with fellow Associates.

Moving forward Sarah will be continuing her practice in weaving and is currently researching ideas around social histories and material origins.
