“We are all on this planet to create and we each have our own self-expression of who we are. It’s the job of the artist to bring out what is inside, what they are feeling, what they are conceptualizing, and bring it out in their work and I do that in my fine art photographs and video installation art. My work keeps moving and growing and it keeps changing but there are some things which are constant about it. My work is about connection. Connection to the self, each other, to all lifeforms on this planet and also a connection to the entire universe,” explains Maeder.

"There are times I find myself living in a black and white world. When I am in this state, I separate from Nature; and therefore, I separate from my very core of being. Living in this black and white world of judgements, I cannot see the true colors of Nature, and hear the masterpiece that is Nature’s Symphony. When I am truly living in the present, I am living in harmony with Nature. I experience her dazzling display of colors, and the ballet of her movements, of which I am an integral part of." –Cheryl Maeder, Photographer and Video/Sound Installation Artist.

PLAY VIDEO INSTALLATION

PLAY Video Installation televised nationally on PBS, Project Filmmaker funded by National Endowment for the Arts. "I was walking through a shopping mall on the top floor and happened to look down at children wildly jumping and playing in this wonderland below. From the vantage point up high, the children looked like tiny elves and fairies jumping, laughing and happily playing in a breakfast-themed playground. I hurriedly went home, grabbed my camera and for several weeks returned to document the children playing. The short film, PLAY, is about the Magic. I am honored that two of the photographs from this series are featured in a prestigious, Curated Photography Collection by Hamburg Kennedy for Foster Care along with Diane Arbus, Sally Mann, Elliott Erwitt and Martin Parr."
