Body found in search for Missing Artist Sarah Cunningham

A body has been found in the search for Sarah Cunningham who went missing in London over the weekend.

Sarah Cunningham, an internationally recognised 31-year-old artist, was last seen in London at around 3am on Saturday and was reported missing by her family later that day.

The Metropolitan Police said on Monday officers had informed her relatives of a casualty on the tracks at a nearby Tube station.

Scotland Yard said the emergency services had been called to reports of a casualty on the tracks at Chalk Farm Underground station shortly after 1am on Monday. “While we await formal identification, Sarah’s family have been informed of this development,” the statement said.

“They have asked that their privacy is respected at this very difficult time. Officers from the Met are working with colleagues in the British Transport Police to look into the circumstances."

The body has not yet been formally identified, police added, saying the death was being treated as unexpected but was not currently thought to be suspicious.

Sarah Cunningham received the Royal College of Art’s Ali H Alkazzi Scholarship Award, and her work has been exhibited internationally including in New York and Los Angeles.
