About

Sherie is an emerging artist based in England. Her specialism is realism and portraiture of both humans and objects. She creates paintings and drawings that explore how identity is carried, negotiated and revealed through material culture. Working primarily in paint — with parallel practices in biro and graphite drawing — she focuses on portraits of people and of the objects that sit with them: footwear, fashion pieces, everyday possessions. These items are not mere props but active participants in biography, social signalling and interior life.

Sherie is influenced by contemporary artists who interrogate fashion, figure and interior worlds; Issy Wood’s work has been especially formative in how it treats objects as carriers of emotional and cultural weight. Sherie is interested in continuing this investigation through her own visual language, one that privileges the worn and personal as a means to examine broader questions of identity, class and memory. Ultimately her practice asks: how do the things we choose, inherit and wear become part of who we are? How do these objects convey our identities? Her portraits are attempts to map those relationships — to show not only faces and forms, but the textures and objects that shape and disclose the lives they inhabit.
