Sarah Detweiler
"Feral Forties", Woman in Wolf Mask in a Forest with Felted Embellishment

2025

About the Item

This piece titled "Feral Forties" is an original painting by Sarah Detweiler and is made from oil paint and wool fiber on gallery wrap canvas with acrylic painted edges. This piece measures 36"h x 28"w and ships with a gallery-issued Certificate of Authenticity. Detweiler portrays motherhood with a childlike spirit using oil and embroidery, resulting in vibrant portraits that press into the corners of nostalgia and charm. For her third solo exhibition with Paradigm, she chose to visualize her recent experience of receiving an Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder diagnosis and how she’s adjusting with a new understanding. As if uncovering a hidden part of herself, Detweiler is able to establish a visual vocabulary highlighting her curiosity and perceptiveness as an artist, while also letting audiences into her daily struggles as a human. Instead of seeing her neurodivergence as an obstacle, she can release the expectations of appearing adjusted and “ordinary” in social settings. Audiences can bask in Detweiler’s revelry, as she parades in costumes that both cover her body and reveal her authentic self in her paintings. Sarah Detweiler is a Philadelphia area-based visual artist translating her experiences as a mother into figurative and narrative paintings with hand embroidery. She has a BFA in Visual Communications from University of Delaware and a master's degree in Art Therapy from Pratt. Detweiler has shown her work in solo and group exhibits in galleries across the country. Most notably, her “Hidden Mother” series sold out in two exhibitions with Paradigm Gallery in Philadelphia. Sarah’s work has been published in Hi-Fructose, Create, Artit, MILKED, and Uppercase Magazines, and featured on art blogs including Colossal and The Jealous Curator. She has also been interviewed for multiple art podcasts including The Jealous Curator’s podcast, Art For Your Ear. Sarah's current work centers around themes of motherhood, nostalgia, and childhood memories.
