ABOUT:

Sarah Felis (she/they) is a queer, disabled, working-class, photographer from Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire, UK.

As a disabled, neurodivergent individual, Sarah uses photography as a medium to soothe their isolation and to be challenged socially. Their camera is a tool used to escape the monotony of daily life as a disabled person and help to expand beyond some of the social limitations such a life can cause.

They are self-taught, with a particular focus and interest in marginalised identities, continuing a lifelong interest in psychology & sociology. Sarah connects with models using their experience as a model themselves, combined with their experience as a photographer, to highlight and exhibit unique ways of living and existing.

WORKS:

SUPPORT WORKING CLASS CREATIVES (1).png

'Working Class Creatives' responds to a need which is too often overlooked in the arts; that of the barriers facing working-class artists from getting on in our sector. They are instrumental in initiating much-needed change that will see the art world become more inclusive and reflect the society it purports to serve. I often search their database in my research, it is a vital resource for any arts professional working in culture today. That they have got this far on so little financial resource is remarkable and I am excited to see what they will achieve with further support.” Beth Hughes, Curator, Arts Council Collection.
