I try to create different healing worlds. I think it’s important to keep positive magic in your life.
When I was an art teacher for 83 kids I would always teach and tell them that they can have anything they want in life as long as you ask the right way. I use that same saying to my body of works to create a positive view that moves and grows with you.

I met Sara a number of years ago in NYC.
She was transitioning from being a high level fashion model into becoming a successful working artist.
I was working in corporate media and showing in some pretty hot galleries in Soho and Chelsea.
The global artworld culminates in NYC.
I saw a look in her eyes that said she was a hardworking go getter but also very kind and accommodating.
Her work had an immediate effect on me. I wasn't sure if she had been secretly painting and drawing for years or if she might have been inspired to create another form of expression in her life outside of modeling and art was just the natural progression.
Over the course of time Sara Conca has created a body of work that is in high demand globally and especially here in the United States.
Real art for me is art that is authentic and speaks to you not only because it is something that is familiar like a landscape or a portrait but more importantly it speaks to you on a level that you may not be sure you're familiar with. It stimulates, inspires and expands your perspective.
New technology - means new technology.
We as a species have always strived to reach higher levels of technology.
Abstract means;
Abstraction (from the Latin abs, meaning away from and trahere , meaning to draw) is the process of taking away or removing characteristics from something in order to reduce it to a set of essential characteristics.
Her paintings are explosive, color rhythm and depth work in harmony to present an absolutely unique and indescribable experience for the viewer.
A combination of abstraction and what I would call spiritual technology are how I would describe her paintings
I could go into deeper depth about Sara’s abstract work but I would prefer to focus on the beauty of the work itself. Keeping things simple in a complex world I think keeping things simple can be very helpful.
Back to the concept of technology we can now find 81 tailored works by Sara Conca in the
Jenkins Health and Technology Building
Sara's paintings can be found in private chateaus, hotel lobbies in France, and hospitals in Northern Florida. Conca's artwork are in many exclusive, celebrity homes, collections and museums.

Sara Conca is an American contemporary abstract artist whose mixed media paintings can be found in museums, public installations, hotel lobbies, celebrity homes, and private collections around the world. By layering natural materials and textures, Conca creates immersive, constantly renewing landscapes that celebrate light, movement, and healing.
Conca’s signature painting style is unique: while most painters build their images from background to foreground, she paints in reverse on the back of a clear sheet of acrylic, building the image from foreground to background – letting intuition guide her strokes. To reach the meditative mindset required for this technique, Conca often paints en Plein aire, gathering inspiration from the lushness of rural Florida. When painting, Conca incorporates unconventional materials – raw silver dust, 18k gold leafing, raw color pigments, mica flakes, natural crystals, and even crushed BB pellets.
Through this unique technique and material, Conca is able to craft a metallic and painted “flecked texture” that has an exceptionally dynamic radiance. Each painting’s appearance changes significantly according to the surrounding light, the movement and position of its viewer, and other environmental factors. This makes for an ever-evolving and highly individual viewing experience.
In Conca’s words:
My work is intended to instantaneously immerse the viewer into the visual and emotional energies that I have devoted to each piece. Depending on one’s ability and willingness to be guided by the senses, these paintings can lead one away from the mind and into an alternate and self-made reality filled with color and freedom.
My new series features blues. I love working with this color because it changes in the light by manipulating the textures and layering with silver dust or gold, affording each piece continuous movement and energy from the reflecting and refracting light.
Conca’s dynamic art reflects her varied background. Descended from late-Baroque Italian painter Sebastiano Conca, whose work is on permanent exhibition at the Louvre and the Getty, Conca showed artistic talent early on. At 17, Conca was accepted at the Ateliers D’Art De St. Maur Des Fosses in Paris, France.
There she received critical acclaim for her sculpture and drew inspiration from the movement and energy of the city’s art scene. As her artwork progressed and matured, she was accepted as an assistant of the critically lauded artist Purvis Young.
After Paris, Conca took up both painting and modeling, turning both paths into remarkable careers. She was able to fully support herself as a painter in Manhattan while working closely with fashion icons such as Ralph Lauren.
“[Modeling with Ralph Lauren] was instrumental in training my eye,” Conca states. “Fashion and fine art are both about beauty and balance.”
Her nearly 20 years in New York City as well as her extensive travels gave her a further appreciation for ever-changing environments and heavily influenced her style.
Now, Conca has returned to her southern Florida roots. She looks to the natural, aquatic landscape of her rural home for inspiration for her current and future work.
