Sobre el Artista

http://www.cherylmolnar.com/ Cheryl Molnar is a collage and multimedia artist based in New York City. In 2000, Cheryl received a Bachelor of Fine Arts from the Rhode Island School of Design; she received a Masters in Fine Arts from Pratt Institute in 2005. Cheryl’s work has been exhibited in galleries including Carren Golden Fine Art in New York and White Walls in San Francisco. Cheryl has been awarded residencies at the Weir Farm Art Center in Wilton, CT, and at The Cooper Union in New York, NY. Raised in Long Island, NY, I studied how man-made housing developments permanently altered the natural landscape, taking note of the ubiquity of ranch houses, inorganic structure of neighborhoods and disregard for history. Upon moving to the Greenpoint section of Brooklyn, I’ve witnessed the same trends emerge as the neighborhood gentrifies. My work explores this incongruity through various media including collage, installations and interactive pieces.
