Shawn Sheehy creates artist books and other paper engineered ephemera with an ecological
bent. He dedicates his artistic practice to raising awareness of environmental issues and
contemplating the cultural impacts of human/wild relationships. He uses paper-engineered
structures to communicate those ideas due to their inherent potential to capture viewer attention
and deliver a message. In this presentation Sheehy will talk about his work; about blending a life
of teaching with a life of making; and about the alluring and enduring power of pop-up books.
