About the artist: Sara Rivers is a North London based artist and trained at art school in the early 1970s, where her mental health difficulties first emerged, and her work has grown out of that experience ever since. She describes it as a cycle of breakdown followed by breakthrough. She says, "my need to make marks is a vital part of living and the experiences that threaten to disrupt her life also inform her work and renew it."

Within Outside In she has been both art maker and art critic - raising awareness of how artists whose artistic practice is intimately woven with journeys of recovery are often sidelined by galleries. Sara's work has been shown in the 2023 Outside In National Open at Sotheby's, Project Ability in Glasgow and Hove Museum.
