REBECCA SHERMAN
Rebecca Sherman was born in Columbus Ohio and received a Bachelor’s Degree in Studio ART from New York University in 2003.
Her paintings, drawings and illustrations are inspired by New York City, architecture, light, music and movement. Ultimately, the images explore the internal and external contradiction of perception to reflect an overall experience.
Sherman’s art work has been included in group exhibitions at the Christopher Henry Gallery, Affordable Art Fair, Brooklyn Artillery Fair, C.C.C.P. Gallery and Cameo Gallery. In addition, she has been featured in several online publications such as Iniciative Colectiva Art Magazine and (Don’t be) SPINLESS.
Sherman previously co-organized art events at Built show room, the Lower Eastside Gallery at CSVC and the Interactive Gallery at Creative Pier. She has professional experience working at the 303 Gallery, Artist’s Space and ARTnews Magazine.
In 2009, she launched BHEKI to apply her art in relevant, functional and accessible context. The totes and tees feature one of a kind designs that collage and re-interpret her paintings with embroidered drawings, digitally printed illustrations and other embellishments. The concept of using a tote or tee as an artist’s canvas has allowed BHEKI to create avant- garde designs with the spirit of contemporary art and “haute couture fashion.” BHEKI has been featured on Cutable, Things We Make, Miss Malaprop and Handbag Designer 101.
