SOMERVILLE DECEMBER ARTIST OF THE MONTH - December 15, 2014
The Somerville Arts Council is pleased to announce the December Artist of the Month, Martha Friend.
“I work with found materials of every sort and description and create assemblages with them. I’m quite low tech although someday I plan to learn how to weld. I love to work with rust, old metal objects, ephemera, rocks, organic detritus of all kinds (milkweed, shells, driftwood), sparkly things, vintage finds, and old costume jewelry. I make dioramas, mobiles, wall pieces, sculptures, and some functional items like lamps and floor cloths….”

Congrats to all 12 2014 artists. And be sure to come to our event on Dec. 15 at the Armory cafe to celebrate and hear from all 2014 artists (more info to follow)
A special thanks to Tim Devin, Valeria Amato, Michael Epstein, and Jenn Harrington for coordination of this series.
