Sarah Tse 謝敏行

Sarah Tse,  (born.1985 Chinese: 謝敏行) , is a New York based Chinese artist. Sarah mainly works with pencil, ink and watercolour on handmade papers.[1]

Early Life Sarah Tse was born and raised in Hong Kong, she attended St Paul Convent School and True Light Middle School. [2]. In 2003, She went to England and studied her A-level at Kelly College .Prior to her studies in England , she had never thought about being an artist. She also had no art background before her studies in England. Her parents did not approve of my decision to pursue fine art at University, since the original plan was to study economics.

Tse later went to Central Saint Martins College, London. Before entering Saint Martins College, she had to persuade her family who wanted her to study economy in the first place. [3]She graduated in 2009 and became an artist and designer, and started to exhibit within the UK. In 2010, she was being invited by P3 art and environment (Japan) [4]and Fountain (UK) to participate in her first art residency titled Everything seems; for everything, as well as everybody, heretofore all unknown in Beppu, Japan [5] During her three month stay in Beppu, she interviewed 8 local citizens about their most precious objects and the stories behind. She later transformed these unforgetable memories into 8 portraits drawing on papers. She exhibited these work in Beppu, Fukuoka and Tokyo [6]l[7] and a drawing catalogue was also published in August 2010 to accompany the residency and exhibition. The residency project was sponsored by Shiseido. Co,Ltd, and The Great Britain Sasakawa Foundation (UK) [8]. The residency and exhibition project was being covered in many magazines and newspapers in Hong Kong and Taiwan, and this aroused the interest from many galleries and art organisations in Asia, she later started to exhibit in Shanghai, Beijing, Taipei and her hometown Hong Kong. [9]

In 2011, Sarah Tse advanced her study in the School of Visual Arts in New York.She was one of 40 artist by Perspective magazine as “40 under 40”, one of the next generation artist in the same year. [10][11]

Artistry

Her drawings are mostly pencil on paper. The pencil drawings she currently creates are paradoxes inspired by childhood toys she once played with and patterns she saw during her internships.While pencil sketches full of fanciful textures and paradoxical shapes or creatures are Sarah’s primary form of art, she started by dabbling in various art mediums that emphasized a different set of themes and subjects in her recent art work.

Tse received the Gold Award of the Pearn and Procter Annual Art Prize (2005), the Jealous Graduate Print Prize (Saint Martin’s College, London, 2009) and the Atelier Interaction Residency Programme (Beppu, 2010). She was the exhibition finalist of National Open Art Competition (2009) and listed in 40 Under 40 Next Generation Artists of the Perspective Magazine (2011).
