Since the late 1990s, SARAH SZE has forged a singular visual language that defies the static and redefines the boundaries of contemporary art. Renowned for expanding the intersections between sculpture, painting, video, and installation, she orchestrates complex assemblages using a dynamic palette of both analog and digital materials. Her work persistently explores how we perceive and mark time, space, and flux.

From immersive, architecture-scaling installations to intimate sculptures, drawings, prints, and videos, Sze constructs visual worlds that are in perpetual transformation. Recent solo exhibitions include Sarah Sze at the Nasher Sculpture Center, Dallas (2024); Sarah Sze: Metronome at ARoS Aarhus Art Museum, Denmark (2024); and Sarah Sze: Timelapse at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York (2023).

Her work resides in the permanent collections of major institutions including the Museum of Modern Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Guggenheim Museum, and the Whitney Museum of American Art in New York; the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; the Fondation Cartier, Paris; Tate, London; ARoS, Denmark; M+, Hong Kong; and the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne, among others. Sze has also created permanent public works for LaGuardia Airport, the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority, and the Seattle Opera House.

In 2013, Sze represented the United States at the Venice Biennale with her exhibition Triple Point. She was named a MacArthur Fellow in 2003 and a Radcliffe Fellow in 2005. She currently serves as Professor of Visual Art at Columbia University.
