About Sheena's Presentation
Sheena will share her journey from graphic design to sculpture and describe how volunteer work in community theatre during the 1980s introduced her to paper-mâché over wire, leading to the discovery that wire itself could become the sculpture. Over years of self-directed experimentation, Sheena has developed techniques for shaping chicken wire into expressive human and animal forms with minimal internal support. She will also discuss the advantages of this lightweight, durable medium and encourage artists to explore unconventional materials in their own work. About Sheena
Born in England in 1954, Sheena's family moved often when she was young, settling in Tsawwassen South Delta BC when she was nine. Vancouver's lower mainland became home, with a brief stint at UBC with a Fine Arts Major and later with a Graphics and Communication Arts Diploma from Douglas College in 1978. Sheena's background in graphics and commercial art kept her employed throughout her adult life to her late 50's when she turned her attention to creating her own artistic pursuits, taking the form of sculpture, painting, pleine aire and regular life drawing sessions. Ballet and synchronized swimming in her early years along with fashion design and an abiding love of animals from hamsters to horses inform her art. Spontaneous, lively lines, an appreciation of the human figure and fresh creativity run consistently through her creations. Website: cathousegallery.com/ |
