Melissa Sarat's representational oil paintings
depict a baroque extravagance that mixes the
ephemeral images of contemporary culture with
an elaborate construction of the sublime.

David Kwasigroh
curator
"It could be an important function of art to help
people to become aware of our embeddedness
in the ensemble of nature." Sättele
