affirming the importance of resilience at a moment of increasing cultural conflict About the Artist SEAN DERRY grew up in Alaska. His family moved to the territory via steamship in the late
nineteenth century and later established one of the largest commercial reindeer herds in the state’s history. Derry’s ongoing interest in mechanical devices and amateur engineering can be partially attributed to his childhood experiences repairing lawnmowers. Derry currently lives in Pennsylvania and is the area head of sculpture at Indiana University of Pennsylvania. His work has been featured in solo exhibitions at Gallery 709 (Pittsburgh, PA), Das KloHäuschen (Munich, Germany), Westmoreland Museum of American Art (Greensburg, PA), and the Indianapolis Art Center (Indianapolis, IN), and in group exhibitions at Space Gallery (Pittsburgh, PA), University Museum (Indiana, PA), Pittsburgh Center for the Arts (Pittsburgh, PA), and Anchorage Museum at Rasmuson Center (Anchorage, AK), among other venues.
