Sarah Keirle was born in England and studied at Staffordshire University (UK). Sarah graduated with a BA Hons 3D Design: ceramics in 1998 and immigrated to Perth, Western Australia in the same year.
Sarah started professionally in 2000, and now calls Perth Hills her home with her husband, who built her a lean-to ceramic studio, where she produces one-of-a-kind raku ceramic sculpture inspired by the iconic native flora of Western Australia. The hand-sculptured forms reflect the unique shapes of the native seedpods, and the primitive firing technique of Raku imparts the characteristics and intensity of a natural bushfire. These pieces embody the biological importance of regeneration and new life. In 2022 Sarah travelled to London to participate in London Cluster and in 2023 was filmed for a feature segment on Gardening Australia. Her work is in the Ritz Carlton collection, Melbourne. She is represented by Linton and Kay Galleries, Perth, and is currently putting together a solo exhibition titled Nature’s Vessels with them later this year.
