Details:
Scheckre R. Wheeler is an award-winning multi-hyphenate artist who primarily focuses on organic, semi-functional ceramic sculpture and multi-genre written media that often explore themes of controlled instability in domestic settings and active emotional education for children. Wheeler is pursuing a BFA at the University of Minnesota, for which they have received several scholarships: the Minnie Johnson Scholarship, the Red Rock Center for Arts Post-Secondary Arts Scholarship, the Lorraine Balske Memorial Scholarship, the Winnifred M. Eglin Scholarship, and others.
They make ceramic pottery and functional sculpture, printed digital artwork, printed and darkroom photography, and multi-media paintings for sale at The Hub storefront in Fairmont, MN, in addition to their ongoing commission work. They have participated in 2 community gallery shows, have assisted in curating a show, and have counseled at a week-long summer art camp at the Red Rock Center for Art. As of now, they have over 300 published works and articles and continue writing through independent contracts and occasional volunteer work for charitable organizations.
They are currently working on the development of an online public artist’s agency currently named SCHECKRE, after it’s owner, founder, and conceptual designer, the goal of which is to create a low-cost space for artists of all forms and mediums to sell their work, and to bridge the gap between creative cooperation and artist with the creation of what could be one of the first portfolio libraries available on the internet.
