Ilona Sagar

MA work

MA work

Through a diverse range of media spanning performance, film and assemblage, Sagar explores our shared interactions in both public and private space. Her work often uses the processes involved in making to construct a sense of fractured narrative. This forms a body of work which responds to the social and historic context found in the public and private spaces we inhabit. Illusion and material [dis]honesty set the stage for works which seek to seduce, alluding to something familiar yet other. Her most recent exhibitions include The Swiss Church, Yinka Shonibare Guest Projects, The Hospital Club, Barbican Art Gallery and Jerwood Gallery.
