Sheridan's aim is to relocate, redefine and re-materialize spirituality in the age of the algorithm. To that end, Sheridan imagines how the mediums of painting and video -- made concurrently and complementarily in his practice -- combine through orchestrated movement, location, and editing. His paintings -- hand-painted actions spliced together on canvases originating from film editing techniques -- inform his videos and vice-versa. Each painting compresses the time of its video counterpart into object; likewise, each of Sheridan’s “painting-in-motion” videos unpacks its painting analog into experience in the form of architectural projections and video sculptures. Sheridan received his MFA from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California and his BFA from NYU/Tisch School of the Arts in New York. He has exhibited his work internationally for two decades, most recently in Miami, the XXII Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia; France, Brazil and New York (all 2014). Since a teaching stint in Singapore ending in 2010, Sheridan has participated in six prestigious artist residencies on three continents while receiving grants from the Center for Cultural Innovation, the Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, and SECULT--Secretary of Culture, Bahia, Brazil.
