Sarah Barnett: Spectacle of Being

November 5 - 28, 2026

First Thursday Art Walk - Thursday November 5th, 5-8pm

Drawing from medical imagery and emerging technologies, these paintings present the operating theater as a site where the vulnerable human body, apparatus, machine, image and observer converge. They reflect on the strange reality unfolding as once-imagined technologies become increasingly intimate with our lives.
