“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.

Dancing Tree: a short film by photographer and video/sound installation artist Cheryl Maeder

Experience a short film 'Dancing Tree' by Cheryl 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.

Vimeo: 'Simulcra'

"Since 2008, I have been exhibiting as an artist during Art Basel Week at art fairs such as Art Miami.  I have noticed that social media has transformed our daily lives. In the first years of exhibiting, when viewers would come to the exhibit, they would ask to take photos with their phones. As the years progressed, fewer people would engage directly with the art. They instead use their phones as their lens to the world. Having observed this evolution, I thought it would be interesting to use my own iphone to film the viewers, so that I become an active participant, and we all become the 'Art'."
