SHARON
BEREBICHEZ
Sharon Berebichez is a passionate artist whose work approaches the subjects of the critical moments we are going through as a society, including all the environmental challenges we face.
As an ecofeminist, she tries to emphasize the relationships between women living in a patriarchal society and the culture built on the domination of nature. She references 'the home' as a cultural space to allow women to be part of society without having to choose between being a mother or wife and having a career or profession.
Using materials such as acrylic and oil paint, fabric, embroidery, paper, and resin, she creates realistic, colorful, and alive works. As a process-based artist, she relies on the repetition of movement. The creation of patterns becomes a meditative process that allows her to be present and mindful, connecting with her work and her identity as a woman.
