Elizabeth Sheeler is an interdisciplinary artist based in Madison, Wisconsin. She grew up in Fayetteville, Arkansas, where she first became interested in making art and teaching. She earned her MFA in Studio Art with a focus in 4D from the University of Wisconsin Madison in 2022. In 2019, she received a BFA in Studio Art (Sculpture) and a BFA in Art Education (Printmaking).
Her work includes installation, performance, sound, and interactive projects. She is interested in how people move through spaces, make decisions, and notice what is happening around them especially when vision is not the primary way of understanding. Many of her projects are structured experiences that ask participants to slow down, pay attention, and reflect on their role within a situation rather than being told what to think.
Elizabeth has participated in residencies including the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia. Her work has been shown nationally and internationally, including at VAE Gallery (NC), the Rome Center (Italy), the Kennedy Center (VA), and Arapahoe Community College (CO), and has been published in The Scout Guide. She is a recipient of the Student Support Endowment and the James B. and Susan S. Patterson Graduate Student Fellowship.
