Meet the Artists
Shalya Marsh
Shalya Marsh is the recipient of the 2010–11 Lormina Salter Fellowship. She earned a BFA in Ceramics from the State University of New York at New Paltz and has participated in numerous residencies and workshops including a Kiln God Residency at Watershed, a Studio Assistantship at Arrowmont School of Arts and Crafts and Penland.
Her work has been exhibited regionally and nationally at the Susquehanna Art Museum, Westchester University, the Rouse Company Foundation Gallery, MICA’s Fox Gallery, the Delaware Center for Contemporary Arts, the San Angelo Museum of Art, and the Center for Emerging Visual artists.
Her sculptures express the intrinsic limitation that language places on communication, through the use of decipherable codes and symbols. The viewer is invited to literally decode the piece’s nonsensical pangrams and whimsical definitions.
She has been teaching ceramics classes and participating in teaching residencies and outreach for over ten years, partnering with organizations such as the Print Center, the Center for Emerging Visual Artists, and the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts.Her current work and additional information are available at: www.shalyamarsh.com
