The nighttime darkness of rural places – including Hambidge – is often startling for those unused to it. Darkness can be magical and fearsome. It can heighten your senses, cause you to be introspective, to face fears, and it can make you crave light. For this exhibition, we chose Hambidge Fellows whose works incorporate light and darkness. Exhibiting artists were Wendy DesChene & Jeff Schmuki, Rich Gere, and Michele Schuff. We also featured the work of several potters who make "shine" jugs (a rather different kind of light in the darkness), including Hugh Bridgeford, Colin Gray & Tasha Chemel and TashaMcKelvey.
