Sculpture, Cheryl Coon
May 3, 2018 - June 28, 2018 
  
Artist Cheryl Coon is fascinated by microscopy and organisms like diatoms and plankton that demonstrate infinite variations of natural geometry.  Her sculptures explore many recurring patterns seen in nature, such as shells, spikes, thorns or fish spines which are used by organisms for protection.  She tries to capture a world of mystery and wonder and the strange creatures that lurk beneath the surface of water.  These sculptures are observations of aquatic life forms seen over many years of kayaking in the Pacific Ocean, and fishing around the Sea of Cortez and Baja.
