My creations have a variety of eclectic and electric subjects, often obviously and sometimes subconsciously inspired by my five years as an expat, and a view into the world of spirits and magical entities beyond and yet within our own. Some of my work was stolen from glimpses of my old residences in: Turkey, Bolivia, and India. I am inspired by movement and the subtleties of stillness in a moment. Beneath every movement or restraint of movement lies a spirit that I try to capture. My art is also about fear and reflection.

Some of my pieces challenge the idea of globalization by highlighting the uniqueness of different cultures, including my own. I want to reach what is inside people whether it be their fears or something soothing they never knew existed.I developed my style being self-taught then was formally trained. I am a painter and a photographer. I wish to paint the way Cem Karaca sings.  http://sarahkushwara.com
