Bio
Chris Filip
Working with Sara was really great. When she joined the project, things were definitely in disarray. She was able to build a coherent strategy for marketing the project in record time and see it through. Her help was invaluable at boosting attendance for our events, in a year where everything was turned upside down.
Anne White
Sara curated an exhibition about my father, Peter White at the Minories Art Gallery this year. She demonstrated excellent aptitude for this kind of work in terms of her organisation, presentation skills, the ability to balance all her workload and work to tight deadlines. At the same time she was able to show great sensitivity to my father's works. Sales both during the exhibition run and later sales resulting from the initial exposure exceeded my expectations. The catalogue she produced was a work of art in itself and went down a treat. Sara's awesome communications skills allows her to network and build a rapport with suppliers, gallery staff and all third parties and is therefore able to procure goods and services at affordable prices. She listened to my requirements and also offered me advice about aspects of the project that I wanted to undertake myself. She keeps abreast of current trends and is constantly widening her horizons cultural visits to the capital, workshops, courses and international travel.
