Katerina Sarra was born in Athens in 1982, where she lives and works. She began her studies at the sculpture sector of the Athens School of Fine Arts (ASFA) and then switched to the painting sector, graduating with honours. In December 2017, her degree project featured in a documentary series about art students in Greece produced by TV channel of the Hellenic Parliament, in collaboration with the Department of Cultural Technology and Communications of the University of the Aegean. In 2020, she completed a Master of Fine Arts at ASFA. Her visual practice is principally concerned with the process of painting, interrogating its starting point, its evolution as well as its destination. Her work sets in motion a continuous process of transforming an original writing on the canvas into images essentially reflecting back to themselves. The goal is to present a whole by activating a series of dynamic fields conversing with each other within the space defined by the frame, with each field reflecting a plausible situation. The manner of conducting this conversation is a key element of her explorations as a painter. She has participated in group exhibitions and been awarded several prizes. In 2021, she held her first solo exhibition at a.antonopoulou.art gallery in Athens. She has been awarded the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Artist Fellowship by ARTWORKS (2022).
