Sarah Miles

Sarah Miles makes film works that draw together fragments of narratives evoking familial experience and memories, which can no longer remain hidden. There is a tension in the work between a desire to keep secrets and a compulsion to communicate.

In 2005, Film and Video Umbrella commissioned Sarah Miles to make ‘No Place’. This major film work was exhibited in two parts, at either end of the train line between London and King’s Lynn, Norfolk.

The artist’s work has been broadcast on television as well as being presented in galleries including Tate Britain and ICA, London; Ikon, Birmingham; and Arnolfini, Bristol. In addition, her films have been included in film festivals worldwide. Miles lives and works in London.
