about
Lindsy Marshall is a mixed media artist based in Massachusetts. After discovering glass while studying at Massachusetts College of Art and Design, it became a prominent material in her work. She has been awarded the Pilchuck Emerging Artist Residency and the Worcester Craft Center Residency. Her work has been featured in notable exhibitions such as Bullseye’s Emerge 2018 and Contemporary Glass Sculpture at the New Bedford Art Museum. Lindsy spends much of her time focused on experimentation and exploration, pushing the limits of what is possible with the material and creating work that is often unrecognizable, inspired by nature, life, and the body. She is particularly interested in where science, geology, and magic intertwine with glass.
