By loosening the rules of scale, gravity, and time, Moran creates dreamy pastoral scenes where humans, animals, and nature coexist without hierarchy. The show explores the quiet, almost mystical bonds between humans and animals, and the ways they shape our emotional lives.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"sqsrte-large\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"><span class=\"sqsrte-text-color--darkAccent\">Moran paints wet-on-wet, letting thin washes of color blend and bleed across the canvas. Sunflowers dissolve into daisies, shadows become shapes, and light seemingly glows from the flowers themselves. Her compositions balance the elastic logic of cartoons with a sophisticated command of color and atmosphere. Figures, rainbows, and blossoms appear in different configurations while animals move through these spaces less as narrative agents but\u00a0 as symbolic or devotional presences.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"sqsrte-large\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"><span class=\"sqsrte-text-color--darkAccent\">Among them, inevitably, is the artist\u2019s dog Pepper. Pepper died early in the making of this series, and her prolonged illness ushered in an extended period of anticipatory grief. During this time, Moran found solace in researching ancient Roman dog epitaphs\u2014concise, tender monuments that affirmed the endurance of this bond across millennia.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"sqsrte-large\" data-rte-preserve-empty=\"true\"><span class=\"sqsrte-text-color--darkAccent\">The result is a body of work that is a meditation on companionship, loss, and remembrance\u2014a garden for Pepper to inhabit and for the artist herself to heal within. Two large-scale column paintings, inspired by the artist\u2019s research on ancient Rome, create an architectural space &#8211; a temple &#8211; for the sculptures to operate as a shrine, and visitors are encouraged to bring their dogs; milk bones will be provided.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16412\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16412\" style=\"width: 680px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16412 \" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Bodega-Flower-Dream2C-11x14in2C-AonC2C-2025.webp?resize=680%2C533&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"680\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Bodega-Flower-Dream2C-11x14in2C-AonC2C-2025.webp?w=500&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Bodega-Flower-Dream2C-11x14in2C-AonC2C-2025.webp?resize=300%2C235&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16412\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sarah Alice Moran, Bodega Flower Dream, 2025, Acrylic on canvas, 11 x 14 inches<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16413\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16413\" style=\"width: 677px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16413 \" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Good-Night-P_20262C-AonC2C-60x48in.webp?resize=677%2C841&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"677\" height=\"841\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Good-Night-P_20262C-AonC2C-60x48in.webp?w=500&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Good-Night-P_20262C-AonC2C-60x48in.webp?resize=242%2C300&amp;ssl=1 242w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 677px) 100vw, 677px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16413\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sarah Alice Moran, Good Night P, 2026, Acrylic on canvas, 60 x 48 inches<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"attachment_16414\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-16414\" style=\"width: 685px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-16414 \" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Sun28flower29-Bather_2026_11x1428329.webp?resize=685%2C536&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"685\" height=\"536\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Sun28flower29-Bather_2026_11x1428329.webp?w=500&amp;ssl=1 500w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interviews\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Sun28flower29-Bather_2026_11x1428329.webp?resize=300%2C235&amp;ssl=1 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 685px) 100vw, 685px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-16414\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sarah Alice Moran, Sun (Flower) Bather, 2026, Acrylic on canvas, 11 x 14 inches<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>https:\/\/museumofnonvisibleart.com\/interview\/2026\/SarahAliceMoran.mp3Subscribe: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | TuneIn | RSS | Click here to join mailing list Splat Daisies, is a solo exhibition of dreamlike paintings and sculpture by Sarah Alice Moran.
