Sherry Karver

Bio

"Sherry Karver is not a traditional photographer. She is constantly looking for new and innovative approaches to the medium, and pushes the parameters of both photography and painting. Some images are also dye sublimation prints on metal, which allows the metal substrate to shine through the surface, adding another visual layer of depth to her subjects, as in this piece ""Word of Mouth - the Air We Breathe"".

Sherry was born and raised in Chicago, and now lives in California with her poet/novelist husband Jerry Ratch. Her background is actually as a ceramic sculptor and she received her MFA in ceramics from Tulane University in New Orleans. She taught college level ceramics for many years while her own work evolved into photography and photo-based mixed media. Sherry's work is represented by several galleries, and she has had over 25 solo exhibitions. Her work is in over 185 private, corporate, and museum collections around the country.
