Sally Moore was born in Barry, South Wales in 1962. She trained at the Ruskin School of Art, Oxford, and subsequently won a scholarship to study at the British School in Rome. From an early stage in her career Sally’s paintings made an impact, winning her awards at the National Eisteddfod, and at the 1996 Discerning Eye Exhibition in London, where William Packer awarded her the critic’s prize. In 2005 she won the Welsh Artist of the Year Award. Because of her painstakingly detailed style of painting, Sally’s exhibitions are infrequent - this show consists of only 18 new paintings. Her work depicts dramatic and intriguing stories of everyday life. She pieces together both the reality and the imagined to create paintings full of narrative. Sally says of her work; “Each painting attempts to capture an intense moment. These moments can be pleasurable but sometimes they can be confusing and distressing. Their memories stay with me both in reality and in my dreams”. Sally’s work is in numerous public and private collections, including the National Museum & Gallery of Wales, National Library of Wales, Newport Museum and the Contemporary Art Society.
