Hello, Iā€™m Dr. Sara Witty, an artist and art historian. As an artist, I focus on shadowed subjects executed in flexible materials that can be pushed in nontraditional directions, despite drawing inspiration from the Baroque and Rococo periods. I completed my doctorate in art history, focusing on the history of architecture, at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. I was the recipient of an Andrew Mellon Foundation grant and a fellowship from the Social Science Research Council to conduct primary research on American mental hospital architecture. I am a specialist in poststructural methodology as well as the phenomenology of space and place. In addition to my devotion to creating art and studying buildings and dead French philosophers, I have been known to bind books, tattoo people in exchange for cash, and write for fun.
