Sally is known for her paintings about protest and its place within western democracy. She first came to national and international attention with her street scenes of cities in which rioters are depicted taking on mounted police. In her recent solo exhibition she focused on the women’s peace camp at Greenham Common, established in 1981 to oppose the arrival of nuclear missiles at the American military airbase, very near to where she grew up. The Fence and the Shadow explores both the ex cold war landscape and the women’s relationship with the fence, bringing out symbolism and the slow peaceful power of craft and how this could be developed into a painted stitch.
