WORCESTER, MA – Returning to the Sprinkler Factory Gallery
for their third show together, multidisciplinary artists Christine Croteau, Joanne
Holtje, Ted Lilley, Philip Marshall, and Mark Spencer explore their
interpretations of what happens in the space between: between events, between
each other, between objects, between mental states.
“Space is physical, and emotional, enveloping and separating,
subatomic and galactic. This show
celebrates the many dimensions of space that define us,” offered Spencer.
Croteau is recognized for her deeply personal installations
frequently using found objects and unexpected materials.
Holtje provokes with boldly colored, inventive marks that
make up her layered abstract paintings.
Lilley works with a range of materials including glass,
plastics, and wood to create unexpected visual effects by manipulating their
surfaces and shapes.
Marshall, whose outdoor sculptures have delighted
Worcesterites, continues to experiment with materials and subject.
Spencer uses imaginative techniques to skillfully craft narrative
objects in a variety of media, including sculpture, printmaking, and video.
Connecting this group of artists is the spirit of
exploration, experimentation, and collaboration.
“We are very excited to show at the Sprinkler Factory
again. The gallery is inspiring with its
high ceilings and long walls." Continued Holtje,
“It is a natural venue for our innovative, contemporary work.”
