About the Artist
Sara Tang (she/they) is a multidisciplinary artist, cultural worker, arts administrator, curator, educator, writer, and performer. You can find them glitching out in liminal spaces or exploring the underground powers that pulse through Pittsburgh.
Sara uses found and discarded materials to reclaim and illuminate the self and the sacred deeply embedded in our lives and surroundings. Her creative workshops, projects, and collaborations often explore multiracial and multicultural kinship, the power of knowing and shaping our stories, and understanding the complexities of health and wellbeing. Through research, collaboration, and other practices, Sara studies the movements of humanity within her communities, the body, and in greater ecosystems.
Sara is a member of the #notwhite Collective, an Artist Educator with the Society to Preserve the Murals of Maxo Vanka, and the Digital Content Curator for Anthropology of Motherhood. She has served on the leadership JADED PGH Asian American Pacific Islander collective and with folkLAB’s These Hollow Hills artist residency program of workshops, performances, and inaugural folkFEST. She has also served on the City of Pittsburgh’s Equity Audit Committee and on the Community Advisory Board Council for the Pittsburgh HR/Equity Arts Cohort.
