Artist

Chloe Sherman

Chloe Sherman is a fine art photographer who lives and works in the Bay Area.

She received her BFA in Photography at the San Francisco Art Institute. Her work

stems from a deep commitment to capturing the vibrancy, resilience, tenderness, and joy that she sees in people, particularly within subcultures marginalized or derided by mainstream society.


During the early 90's Sherman began documenting a generation of young self-identified queers in the Mission District of San Francisco. She recognized and valued their collective creativity, pride, and strident defiance of cultural norms. Her photos reflect this nuanced view of an evolving community.


"I witnessed individual conviction with a collective awareness of strength in numbers. I found beauty, grace, and bravery in this subculture that was derided by mainstream society.  My documentary photography work stems from a commitment to capturing the vibrancy, tenderness, individuality, resilience, and joy within communities and subculture."
