Sarah Davidson
Sarah Davidson (b. 1989) is originally from Canada, where they pursued their art education at Emily Carr University (BFA, 2015) and the University of Guelph (MFA, 2019). From 2011-2021, Davidson worked as a hiking and climbing guide, spending months of each year in remote locations in Canada, the United States and Scandinavia. They relocated to New York in 2022, and currently live and work in Brooklyn. While they often draw directly from ‘nature’, their work diffracts distinctions between embodied self and other through a queer ecological lens: critters and space collapse into one another, suggesting a permeable web. A question floats among the forms: who’s seeing who, and how? They have exhibited their work throughout Canada and the United States, including recent solo exhibitions at Auxier Kline (New York, 2025), and Shin Gallery (New York, 2024). Their work has been featured in Booooooom, ARTnews, Canadian Art, Peripheral Review and more.
