Heather Cherry

Medium: Sculpture
Location: Boulder, CO

As a child, I was enthralled by mud and things that flew. I can recall creating huge nests, shelters of fallen branches and moss- covered stones, and the joy of walking through furrowed fields in autumn to find milkweed pods, so I could crack them open and watch the feathered seeds soar. This is where my passion to create began. Tattered paper, weathered stone, beeswax and salt, woodsmoke and fireflies. All of these have been gathered into a life of making something you could wrap yourself in, climb into, or simply hold in the palm of your hand. My hope is to inspire, through assembled bits of things collected, a simple moment that makes you pause and consider fragile discoveries, and that which you know. And perhaps, one day, run unabashedly after all that you love…

I was struck by the beautifully raw, and fragile nature of the music. I felt a sense of circling, retracing and uncertainty wrapped and held by knowing. The idea of a dress came to me and the word “Begin.”
