Sarah van Rossem

Sarah van Rossem’s work originates in forests and roadsides, where she closely observes natural processes and the interplay of light and color. During her walks, she collects plants, leaves, and grasses, which she transforms in her studio into often large-scale graphic works. With great patience, she carefully mixes the colors she observes outdoors, using lightfast etching inks to achieve nuanced, lasting tones.

Using an etching press, she prints these elements in multiple layers onto heavy paper, preserving their veins and textures. Her intuitive and exploratory approach results in layered compositions with natural tones that evoke not only a visual but also a sensory experience, suggesting the presence of nature itself.
