Sherry Kerlin’s work is built
around the many facets of the human condition. She examines both the physical
and the metaphysical perspectives. Her work includes narratives from the
past and the present day, which can be playful and humorous or dark and
mysterious. You feel as if you are viewing the images through a mist of
memory.
