Mass MoCA
1040 Mass MoCA Way North Adams, MA 01247 Lily Cox-Richard’s exhibition Weep Holes addresses ideas of stewardship, beauty and threat, collective action, and building and dismantling. While in residence at the Recycled Artists in Residency Program (RAIR) in Philadelphia, PA, the sculptor became fascinated by a giant bale of tinsel she found, and how the material continually transforms from its use in celebrations to trash. This object becomes the centerpiece of a series of new works in Weep Hole, all of which reflect Cox-Richard’s ongoing interest in materiality, reuse, and how we value objects. Playing with scale, the works on view will range from tiny to outsized–including a 16-foot-tall Shaker broom, made of recycled material and made in residence at MASS MoCA. These works invite the viewer to consider their physical presence and place in the world vis-a-vie the sculptures on view. About the Artist |
