Sondra Gerber
Sondra Gerber’s aluminum sculptures display an intimate interaction between shape, shadow, reflection and movement. The use of positive and negative shapes within the intricate cutwork of her designs cast alluring shadows that interact with the piece itself. Carefully planned out patterns and textures are ground into the surface to reflect light, creating the appearance of movement. She assembles the metal into multiple layers, challenging the spectator to look beyond just the surface.

Sondra graduated from Colorado Art Institute in the early 90’s with an emphasis in fashion design. With a mind for three-dimensional design she playfully experimented with a variety of mediums ranging from fabric to wood to wire. Her career as a metal sculptor sparked when she took her first welding class in 2001 at the Community College in her home town, Omaha, Nebraska.
