Sarah Liken is a self-taught artist making maximalist pop art that delves into the vibrant chaos of modern life. Her work centers around the objects and items people consume and become attached to, exploring how these everyday things reflect who we are. Through bold colors, collage influence, and acrylic paint, she pieces together layers of daily experiences to highlight the relationships between individuals and the material world. Blending traditional methods with digital tools, Sarah captures the beauty and absurdity of consumer-driven culture. Her art examines the complexities of our attachments—whether positive or negative—and how they shape our identities. Each piece is a playful yet critical exploration of how the things we surround ourselves with influence our lives. Sarah’s work aims to evoke joy, curiosity, and nostalgia, embracing imperfections and transforming them into something beautifully chaotic. Her approach is always the same: create with humor, tell a story, and don’t be afraid to be a little over-the-top.
