about

Based in Chatham, NY, Sarah Mijares Fick is a Filipina-American artist whose primary medium is clay. Her expansive sculptures are characterized by wild forms and gestural textures, crafted through traditional and experimental handbuilding techniques. Her work explores spiritual themes of interconnectedness, transformation, time, and our relationships with nature and the unseen.

Initially self-taught, Mijares Fick maintained a personal practice for years before studying under established ceramic artists in the U.S., South Korea, and Morocco. Her eclectic education, which spans cultures and continents, has significantly shaped her work and creative philosophy, as well as her respect for earth as a material.

Mijares Fick's work has been exhibited throughout the Hudson Valley and published in The Wall Street Journal and Architectural Digest Italia.
