Stephen Shaheen is a Brooklyn-based artist whose work explores the porous borders between art, design and architecture. His work spans both manual and digital processes, and employs materials as diverse as repurposed found objects, marble, and recycled denim fiber.

Shaheen trained in Italy as a sculptor and earned his MFA from the New York Academy of Art in 2005. His projects include large, community-driven pieces such as a 100-ton marble and granite installation, Memoria (2002), and his Metrobench (2011), created from 5,000 NYC Metrocards. Shaheen is the recipient of a Ludwig Vogelstein grant, the Italian Cultural Institute/La Fortuna Foundation grant, and a 2009-2010 Residency at the Digital Stone Project. His indoor and outdoor installations are in public and private collections in the United States and Europe.

There is a brilliance of concept, technique and execution in Brooklyn artist Stephen Shaheen‘s illuminated sculpture project The Headlight Series that shines as brightly as the bulb heads of his humanoid creations.

We all messed about with papier-mâché in childhood, but plugging the results into the mains tended to be frowned upon, at least in our school. Shaheen’s work is modelling on an evolutionary scale, using all manner of recycled paper, cotton and denim to create a pulp which he has moulded into life-sized figures whose expressiveness belies their lack of facial features.

It’s difficult to tell whether the power cords connecting his figures are giving them life or impaling them – indeed one of his creations seems determined to turn out the light permanently by pulling his own plug – but they are all centred on the theme of connection. Improbably posed, at times tender, at others desperate, the figures of The Headlight Series shine a light on a rare talent.

Algodão, papéis reciclados, componentes elétricos e criatividade formam as esculturas da série Headlights. Stephen Shaheen utilizou estes elementos para criar formas humanas com lâmpadas substituindo as cabeças. Os “Cabeças de Lâmpada” se acendem quando conectadas à tomada e se apagam quando desconectados. É como se nosso cérebro desligasse sem eletricidade.
