Camden Nights

2022-23

  • Camden Nights is a series shaped by imagined space and childhood memory. Rooted in Sara Carter’s early life in East Texas, the works form dimensional worlds built through recollection and dreamlike vision. The title, selected by curator David de Boer, grounds the series in personal history, even as the imagery remains abstract and suggestive. Paintings like Can We Get There From Here and Happy Crocodile in the Park gesture toward movement, joy, and remembered landscapes, while works such as Today’s Window speak to emotional transition without referencing specific places. Rather than depict scenes, Camden Nights maps internal terrain—moments of wonder, memory, and the shifting space between reality and imagination.
