Sara Truckel was born in Nottingham and moved to London when she was 20. After 10 years in the capital she headed further south to the Isle of Wight where her parents were orignally from. Navigating these moves alongside her fierce support for a kinder, greener world, motherhood, periods of anxiety, depresession and domestic abuse have shaped Truckel as a person and her art practice. In 2023 she was diagnosed with ADHD and everything started to fall into place.
Truckel now works from her studio on the Isle of Wight and is a active member of the IW Creative Network.
Alongside her visual art practice, Sara Truckel is also a brand consultant and marketeer trading as Truckel Creative
