Coleen Sterritt | Los Angeles

Coleen Sterritt is a Los Angeles-based artist known primarily for her abstract, hybrid sculpture. Her work is included in public and private collections most notably the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles. Coleen was born in Morris, Illinois, and received her BFA from the University of Illinois in Urbana-Champaign and her MFA from the Otis Art Institute in Los Angeles. Based in L.A., Coleen exhibits internationally and has received numerous recognitions, including a John Simon Guggenheim Award. She has taught extensively as well, and since 1998 has been a professor and faculty coordinator of the sculpture program at Long Beach City College. Her mixed-media sculptures, watercolors, and drawings develop intuitively, through process and by chance, making her bodies of work fresh and diverse.
