Billy Sherry is a graduate of Georgetown University in Washington, D.C., where he studied sculpture under Leonard Cave. His early work in carved wood was soon replaced with large steel abstract pieces after he met and worked with the French sculptor Marc Berlet in Miami. His work is abstract, using the natural geometry of steel in formal and often lyrical statements. He says of his work, "I work in an abstract expressionist mode, building the sculpture usually with no preconceived plan. I like the angular expression of steel. The constructive process affords me freedom to experiment in many directions. I strive for clarity and succinctness in my work." His work is grounded in the tradition of Gonzalez, Smith and Caro, yet it expresses a clear and individual style.

Billy Sherry is a founding member of The (x) Gallery, a cooperative of contemporary art on Nantucket. His work is shown with The Provincetown Group Gallery, East East Gallery, and most recently The Art Cabinet in Nantucket.
