Kerry Editions

Kerry Shaw is a photo-based visual artist from Canada, based out of Sn Clemente, California and Toronto. With a conceptual approach, she absorbs remembrance into her daily practice with a focus on detailed and colorful aesthetics. Her work explores the ever evolving, consequential, perpetual flow of nature and the elaborately beautiful. In 2011, her family lost her brother Stuart. This inspired a life-long devotion to creating epic imagery to meditate on and consolidate her loss as well as propel tributes to him into tangible visuals. Her translation of longing into allurement emerge as large-scale, often mystically surreal, pigment prints. Her background in modern dance and traditional painting is evident in her highly choreographic approach to complicated elements. Seamless illustrations are made up of often hundreds of images and layers, painted into a distinctly effortless composition.
