About the artist

Introduction to Cheryiah Sunshine

Cheryiah Sunshine’s art journey begins in the heart of her home in Waipahu, Hawaii, where she dives into memories and family stories, bringing them to life through her unique medium: tape. As a collage artist and University of Memphis graduate with a BFA in graphic design, she has found a way to blend her skills into a deeply personal exploration of her connections with others. Her process often starts with a simple yet profound ritual—sifting through old family photo albums. She retrieves cherished snapshots, moments frozen in time, and uses them as the foundation for her work. From there, she sketches out compositions, preparing to layer them with an unexpected material: tape. Each piece of tape, with its diverse colors, patterns, and textures, becomes a tool for Cheryiah to weave together fragments of memory, creating compelling contrasts that invite viewers to see these familiar moments in a new light. The precision and creativity of her work, caught the attention of notable events like Art of Science 2022 at Crosstown Arts in Memphis and “Welcome to the Afrofuture: The Matrix of Creativity” at the New Orleans African American Museum. Her pieces have also been featured in the University of Memphis Juried Student Exhibition, VISIBLE at the Yeiser Art Center, and as part of the Urban Art Commission’s Movable Collection. Recently, she was shortlisted for a solo exhibition with COWRIE Culture in Accra, Ghana, and is currently a 2024 resident artist at the Photo Trouvée Virtual Artist Residency. Every strip of tape is a bridge, a way of connecting past and present, personal and universal. Through her work, we're invited into her world, one that is vibrant, layered, and endlessly reflective of the bonds that shape us.
