Coleen Sterritt

Coleen Sterritt’s hybrid sculpture evokes the interplay between nature, culture, and lived experience. Her source materials are pulled from familiar objects and elements. Plaster, tar, pinecones, fishing line, found furniture, and studio refuse are some of the components she uses to construct her richly evocative formal language. Questioning the diverse possibilities of sculpture in both scale and form, her eccentric, abstract sculpture present strong polarities possessing a resonance at once familiar and obscure. Her notable awards include the Guggenheim Fellowship, NEA, Art Matters, COLA, and Getty/CCF.
