Lost, found and reworked
Detail of one of Rebecca McGee Tuck’s sculptures of found objects in her current show at Fountain Street Fine Art, Boston. She tells the gallery:
“The inspiration for all of my work comes from found objects that I collect or that friends and family have found and have thought to give to me. I like to call these emotional artifacts. An entire sculpture can be inspired by one small item. I love to fabricate stories about the history of the objects. The best day in my studio is when I completely lose myself in the back story of my work. I may begin with a photograph or an old crinkly sewing pattern, but I will end the day with a sculptural narrative.’’
