In this captivating conversation, sculptor Sherlin Hendrick and I delve
into the fascinating story behind her artistic evolution and the
discovery of her unique artistic voice. We'll explore the intriguing
ways she harnessed the power of limitations and rules to shape her
creative identity.
Sherlin Hendrick discusses an intuitive practice she had when she
created her iconic series of sculptures, pairing an animal with an
emotion. Sherlin initiated a self-imposed game of embracing her
intuition as her guide. Her rule was simple: if she had a thought she
had to follow it. She says that “Anxiety Rabbit” popped up first, and it
went from there, leading to a surprising series of creative
revelations. She didn’t know where it would go but she just kept
following her intuitive thought until the entire show had been created!
Join us as Sherlin Hendrick unveils her secrets of creative intuition,
the power of embracing uncertainty, and the magic of following artistic
instincts, even when the destination is uncertain. This episode is a
testament to the limitless possibilities that lie within the realm of
artistic exploration.
