Travel: Shark Girl at the Dayton Art Institue

2026-05-01 - Dayton, OH - Photo by Pen
Shark Girl As Boxer is a 2016 mixed media work by Cincinnati native Casey Riordan, on display in the Dicke Gallery at the Dayton Art Institute. According to the display, "Shark Girl appears regularly in Riordan's work and represents her irrational fears and anxiety; Shark Girl was inspired by Riordan's childhood fear of a shark being in the swimming pool. What might it mean to embody our fears-- to literally face them? Perhaps if one did that, they could do anything."

Shark Girl As Boxer is inspired by Elizabeth Wilkinson Stokes and British women boxers in the early 1700s.
