Bio
Cheung’s work captures experience through time and movement onto the surface of a photographic medium. Each work manifests the physical expression and motion through a combination of natural occurrences and Cheung’s own gestures. Each of Cheung’s pieces begins with light and gesture. The expressive nature of her work translates as calm and contemplative and others as aggressive or panicked apprehension. The compositions of her work are a combination of the artists’ intervention and natural forces. Cheung’s works play off the rich history of the photographic medium and explores the push and pull between physical reality and captured reality. Natalie Cheung (b. Falls Church, Virginia) received her MFA in Photography from Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia and her BFA in Photography from the Corcoran College of Art + Design in Washington, DC. Her work has been exhibited nationally and internationally; she has been profiled in Washington Spaces Magazine and has had work represented in numerous collections including the Museum of Fine Art, Houston and the DC Commission on the Arts and Humanities. Cheung currently teaches at the George Washington University and has previously taught at the Corcoran College of Art + Design and Temple University, Tyler School of Art. She has been represented by Morton Fine Art since 2014.
