Speaker biography:
Sarah Bodman is an artist and researcher at the Centre for Print Research, University of the West of England (UWE), Bristol, UK. Sarah is also Programme Leader for the MA Multidisciplinary Printmaking course at UWE. She is editor of the Artist’s Book Yearbook, Book Arts Newsletter, and The Blue Notebook, a journal for artists’ books.
Her recent artworks include Read With Me, which builds upon the experimental book project Read to Me, where the artist told stories to objects which were then ‘read’ back by a psychometric reader. Read With Me is the result of a performative drawing event (2019), readings by the psychometric reader, collages made during lockdown, and words assembled from the dissected readings. It was created in tribute to Susan Hiller’s Sisters of Menon (Coracle Press for Gimpel Fils, 1983).
