Sherman Finch is a hybrid artist who works in both traditional, digital, and multi-media, with a special emphasis in the area of creative interaction, kinetic assemblage, sonification, and conceptual art.

He received a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design and two Master’s degrees from the Maryland Institute, College of Art: a multidisciplinary MFA at Mount Royal and a MA in Digital Arts and Media. His work has been exhibited, performed, and screened at venues such as Roswell Museum and Art Center (NM), Amarillo Museum of Art (TX), Artscape (Baltimore), Site:Brooklyn (NY), Govennor’s Island Art Fair (NY), Alexandria Museum of Art (LA), Art Interactive (MA), Sarai Media Lab in New Delhi (India), Museum of New Art (Detroit), York Art Gallery (UK), London Experimental Film Festival (UK), among other places. In 2016, Sherman’s work was featured on a billboard in LA as part of the public art project The Billboard Creative. He was also included in a publication  Future Now: 100 Contemporary Artists,  produced by Aesthetica, a British arts and culture magazine. He is a member of the collaborative group, The AKA Collective, co-founder of the LiveLab, and an Assistant Professor in the Visualization Department at Texas A&M. Sherman currently divides his time between Houston, Texas and New York state.
