Clement has a portfolio case full of bits and pieces, old woodprint scraps, and ink and paint swatches as a kind of storehouse of materials. “I like the idea that bits of discarded pieces of paper can regain value and take on a new role. I love the thrill of finding exactly the right piece. It is through this layering process that my drawings come to life. The anatomically correct beetle escapes the mundane realm of ‘textbook drawing,’ and escapes the flat surface of the paper too. Through my flowing lines and vibrant colours, I hope to give my beetle, bird or tree, personality.”
Sarah Clement, interviewed by Carmen Mathes for Sad Mag #10
