Sheryl Zacharia
Sheryl Zacharia was born and raised in the New York area and lived in Manhattan all of her adult life. At Southhampton College, she majored in painting but spent many years pursuing a career as a singer-songwriter. She performed in the NYC club circuit for over 10 years and is a published songwriter.
Missing her visual arts roots, she began working in clay which started her on new artistic path. She studied and worked in various Potteries and has exhibited both locally and nationally. Her pieces have been published in various magazines and books, Ceramics Monthly, Ceramic Arts and Perception, Lark Publications etc. and most recently in Blouins Gallery Guide's article on SOFA CHICAGO 2015. Her work is in corporate, museum and private collections. In 2011 she completed an eight month extended residency at The Museum Of Arts and Design in NYC.
In 2009 and 2013 she received grants from NoMAA, (Northern Manhattan Artists Alliance) with the support of JPMorgan Chase Foundation and UMEZ.
Though she has always considered herself a die-hard New Yorker, she relocated to Santa Fe New Mexico for 10 years to live out her dream of being a full time artist with a home studio. Recently she moved back to New York City and lives at Westbeth Artist Housing.
She has been on Faculties of Greenwich House Pottery in NYC, The Art School at Old Church in Demarest NJ, The West Side Y in NYC, and has taught numerous workshops including Harvard Ceramics, Kingsborough College, The Clay Art Center in Port Chester NY, and Ghost Ranch in Abiquiu NM, to mane a few.
She is currently creating work for upcoming Exhibits and Art Fairs.
