Sara Punt's work is characterized by strong black and white contrasts and bodies that take on abstract shapes. Through her history in dance she formed an intimate relationship with the human body’s ability to express.
This bodily expression was something she deeply missed after realizing dancing was no longer an option. “For years I felt incredibly lost in my skin, searching for a way to meet myself in my human form again. Teaching myself the art of photography was the key to achieving that. It gave me the opportunity to explore the human essence, body and form, and transfigure what I discovered into art that embodies both the light and dark sides of my being.”

Even though her work is purely photographic, she looks at bodies more like a sculptor than a photographer. During the shooting process she devotes her time creating the abstract shapes and forms you can find in her work. She draws inspiration from dancers, sculptors, the principles of Surrealism and the personal stories of her models.
“I strive to create a distant reality through aesthetically abstracting the human form in order to not only see the body for what it is, but also all the things it could possibly become as multifaceted beings.”
