Sarah Norton is an interdisciplinary Australian artist and creative facilitator whose practice explores the subtle dialogue between material, creativity, and human connection. Working with clay, fibre, and paint, she draws inspiration from the natural world, allowing intuition and exploration to guide her hands and her process. Each piece she makes reflects a quiet attentiveness to texture, form, and the rhythm of making.
Sarah’s creative journey began in interior design and evolved through organisational innovation and design facilitation, before she pivoted towards deepening her personal art practice. Portrait photography, painting, clay, and fibre-based work became vessels for exploration, expression, and mindful engagement. Alongside her studio practice, she facilitates workshops and coaching in innovation, design thinking, and leadership, supporting others to unlock their creativity and reconnect to their authentic selves.
Her artworks and fibre pieces have been exhibited across Australia and internationally, in both solo and group contexts, each body of work reflecting transformation, presence, and the restorative power of making by hand.
Through Sarah Norton Creative, Sarah leads intuitive weaving, mindful watercolour, and hand-building clay workshops - immersive experiences that invite participants to slow down, listen deeply, and reconnect with their innate creativity. In these moments of presence, making becomes more than craft; it becomes a meditation, a form of healing, and a way of rediscovering the quiet wisdom within.
