ARTIST BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH: As a 2003 BFA Photography Major from Emily Carr University in Vancouver, Sarah Fuller is one of several of Alberta photographers who have extended their practice into video, installation and performance. In addition, instead of the photographic image being a discrete work in and of itself, the photographic act and its image(s) are only part of the story which Fuller has set in motion. Her art, then, is primarily project-based, site-specific and relies on large-format photography in which the artist herself is sometimes present in the final work. Major themes explored include place, landscape and the constructed wilderness with an emphasis of what she describes as “the multiple levels of perception, reality and narrative.” Iceland, Banff National Park and Dawson City, Yukon are three of the locations where she has created new work. Sarah Fuller has been an artist in residence at Klondike Institute of Art and Culture, Yukon; Fondazione Antonio Ratti, Italy and the Association of Visual Artists (SIM), Iceland. In 2015, supported by the Canada Council for the Arts, she conducted a self-directed research project in Australia. This was followed by her acceptance into an MFA degree program at the University of Ottawa (2015 -2017). Fuller’s art has appeared twice in the Alberta Biennial of Contemporary Art (2013 and 2015, Art Gallery of Alberta) and from her home base in the Bow Valley, AB, she has exhibited at the Whyte Museum of the Canadian Rockies (Banff, AB), Calgary’s Truck Gallery (with Dianne Bos), Les Territoires (Montreal, PQ), Latitude 53 (Edmonton, AB), Christine Klassen Gallery (Calgary, AB) and others.
