October First Friday and Exhibitions
Artist Lisa Murch has been working for the past three months on a site-specific installation in Projects Gallery’s stairwell and lower level. Entitled “Wormhole” this immersive environment utilizes unexpected materials to craft a surreal and naturalistic world that envelops the viewer. Clouds are constructed from discarded eggshells, ants formed by nut and pods scurry past, and eyes watch from hidden places. Lisa Murch was recently awarded a purchase prize at Art of the State from the State Museum in Harrisburg. Opening reception will be First Friday October 2nd, from 6-9 PM. The reception is free and open to the public. Also on display will be Fresh! a show of emerging artist selected by gallery director Helen Meyrick. Both shows continue through October 31st, 2009.
