Enjoy this virtual tour of the exhibit Am I Dreaming It or Is It Dreaming Me?, led by Bill Caccia, Sara’s son and Collection Manager. The exhibit showed from January 21 – April 18, 2022 at the Holter Museum of Art in Helena, Montana.

Sara was an avid student, though spent very little of her early life in school. As an adult, she took courses in anthropology, studio art, art history, astronomy, literature and linguistics. She left school feeling frustrated, and pursued the rest of her academic and artistic life on her own terms. Insatiably interested, she was drawn to Jungian psychology and the relationship between dreams, mythology, symbols and archetypes. She wrote, “I am not so interested about what is in front of the eyes as I am about what is behind the eyes”

Sara’s intense curiosity erupted in her artwork. Throughout her life she made paintings, drawings, ceramic sculptures and textile works. She kept incredibly detailed journals in which she both wrote and illustrated her dreams, which in turn informed her paintings and sculptures.”
