{{use dmy dates|date=December 2014}}Joe Sheehan (born 1976 in Nelson, New Zealand) is a stone artist and jeweller who works primarily in pounamu (New Zealand greenstone or jade).[1]

Early life and education

Sheehan has been carving since his early teens. His father is an American jade carver who emigrated to Nelson in the 1970s.[2]{{Rp|87}} Sheehan worked in his father's business, which supplied jade carvings to the tourism market in Rotorua.[3]

Sheehan studied contemporary jewellery at the Unitec Institute of Technology, where his tutors included Pauline Bern, graduating with a Diploma in Design (Jewellery) in 1996.[4][5]

Career

Sheehan works with pounamu, which is a material of great significance in Māori culture. Some of Sheehan's works explore "the value placed on pounamu as a commodity, rather than a material of cultural importance".[6] In others he uses pounamu in unexpected ways, for example carving ballpoint pens, a tape cassette, or a lightbulb.[3] Sheehan has also made works that question New Zealand's 'clean, green' image.[2]{{Rp|87}} He says 'A lot of contemporary carving is retrospective looking. I wanted my stuff to relate to the current social environment but also reference the particular way our carving industry has developed'.[2]{{Rp|87}}

Limelight, his second exhibition, was a solo show at Objectspace in 2005, following a solo show at Avid Gallery in Wellington the previous year.[7] In 2006 Sheehan was one of the Arts Foundation of New Zealand's inaugural New Generation Awards recipients.[5] In 2008 he was selected to participate in the 28th São Paulo Art Biennial; in 2011 he travelled to Antarctica as an Antarctic Arts Fellow under the Artists in Antarctica Programme.[8][9] In 2012 he had his first survey exhibition, 'Joe Sheehan: Other Stories', at Pataka Art + Museum in Porirua, New Zealand.[10][11]

Sheehan has been commissioned by the Wellington Sculpture Trust to produce Walk the Line, a site-specific sculpture, for the refurbishment of the Wellington cenotaph. Sheehan is carving 300 nephrite discs that will travel across the space, marking the original bed of the Wai Piro stream.[12][13]

Collections

Sheehan's work is held in a number of public collections, including Christchurch Art Gallery, the Museum of New Zealand Te Papa Tongarewa and the Chartwell Collection at the Auckland Art Gallery.[14][15][16]
