Sarah Jayne Booth’s assemblages and multifaceted praxis focus on the domestic realm, she analyses ‘the everyday’ via a kaleidoscope of found objects, sound, video and other subtle devices. Using a subversive feminine aesthetic she melds and conjures discarded bits and bobs into new narratives, distorting their original function. She configures fictional scenarios and uncanny montages that scrutinize a host of social conflicts. The daily stream of injustices presented via mass media substantiates and maintains her emphasis on sexuality, space, women and the home. Ardently focused on feminist ideologies, the ‘Separate Spheres’ and social histories her work interrogates various characteristics of material culture, the female body and human ecology, where environs can be an affirmative space or one of hazard. Her peculiar feminine making alludes to everyday activities and treasured ideologies that are imprinted and indoctrinated deep within the feminine psyche and she recounts these anecdotes to highlight the frequency with which these injustices and systemic failures occur. She responds to the home as both a site of constraint and a source of rich previously taboo imagery, where changing attitudes to domestic space, labour, materials and iconography are in flux.
