“Abandoned Habitat,’’ by Susan Erickson, in the group show “Habitat,’’ at 6 Bridges Gallery, Maynard, Mass., through Feb. 6.
The gallery says that “many of the artists are local, but some come from beyond New England to offer their perspective. Some artists looked to nature for inspiration, such as Ms. Erickson and C.J. Lori, while others focused on indoor environments, such as Kristin Petrillo and Kirti Patel. Often, the artists took the theme of ‘Habitat’ to mean their own, or the place that they most wish to inhabit. For this reason, ‘Habitat’ contains a host of unique works of art detailing many different locales and environments, all of which speak to the idea not just of habitat, but of home.’’
