Sarah Sze (/ˈz/; born 1969) is an American artist and professor of visual arts at Columbia University. Sze's work explores the role of technology, information, and memory using everyday materials. Her work often represents objects caught in suspension. Drawing from Modernist traditions, Sze confronts the relationship between low-value mass-produced objects in high-value institutions, creating the sense that everyday life objects can be art. She has exhibited internationally and her works are in the collections of several major museums.
