Cheryl Tall
“My desire for the harmonious existence of human beings with nature is represented by figures that become a refuge for birds and animals”
Artist Statement
Cheryl Tall’s sculpture uses metaphor and myth to create a surrealistic ceramic world. Her work touches on social and environmental issues, relationships, belonging and displacement, nostalgia, inherited histories, and our search for meaning and place.
Myths and dream imagery have been a recurring theme in much of Tall’s work. By combining contemporary references with ancient stories, Tall seeks to explore the nature of being human.
