About Artist

Sara Nash

Sara Nash is an award-winning Ballarat-based photographic artist known for taking the visual road less travelled. With a non-traditional approach to street photography, abstract landscapes and intimate portraiture, she uses high contrast black-and-white composition, luminous colour, textural stock and innovative post-processing methods to underpin the messages in her work. Her pieces have been widely exhibited and published. In a world inundated with imagery, both real and manufactured, Sara stands out for her unwavering commitment to authenticity and storytelling. Through her assured and curious lens, she invites viewers to see the world anew, to pause, and to reflect on the beauty and complexity of the human experience.
