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, 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 New York, New Mexico, South Korea, and Morocco. Her unorthodox education, which spans cultures and continents, has significantly shaped her work, creative philosophy, and respect for earth as a material.
Recognized as one of Hudson Valley’s top 30 artists under 30 (Times Union, 2023), Mijares Fick's work has been exhibited at The Beck and Mary MacGill, and featured in The Wall Street Journal and Architectural Digest Italia.
