About
Keri Sheheen is a multidisciplinary artist born and raised in Staten Island, NY.
She has a profound interest for the macabre, local history and the strange that is explored through means of illustration, design, printmaking, and vintage forms of animation. With a BFA in Printmaking from SUNY New Paltz as her foundation, she has exhibited works in galleries and shows throughout the tri-state area. This work includes screen printed posters, animations converging with printmaking techniques, and stop motion animation. Beyond the gallery scene, Keri collaborates often with Coney Island USA, where she brings her art to life in the form of hand-painted banners for their annual Mermaid Parade in Brooklyn. Keri also frequents local art markets and fairs with her traveling print company, Parlor Trick Prints LLC, which focuses on digitally printed illustrations onto wood and laser cut merchandise. She currently lives and works from her home studio in New Dorp alongside her partner, Carl, and twocats, Charlie and Evelyn Bean.
