Sarah Schleich’s work revolves around values and traditions. Her art is a hybrid combination of painting and sewing, where each piece fits perfectly to create a scene, a complete set.
Her favourite fabric is the french Toile de Jouy whose patterns are reminiscent of the famous Villeroy and Boch porcelain. In her compositions, Sarah explores the qualities of textile, such as the shine or weight of the fabric, thus recalling her freedom of spirit. But in the end, our painter, attached to family traditions, tries to revive the most precious memories of our childhood, while asserting herself as a woman of her time and simultaneously embracing the best of tradition.
