LYDIA JENKINS MUSCO
Lydia Jenkins Musco’s concrete sculptures provide a powerful commentary on the accumulation of time, growth, and memory. Her work, constructed from layers of integrally pigmented hand-cast concrete, create moveable, stackable forms, mirroring the process of moving through time and the slow transformation of the landscape. Musco’s sculptures are both grounded and dynamic, reflecting her deep engagement with the material and her quest to understand the world through making.
Musco’s work has been exhibited in galleries and outdoor spaces across the United States. She studied stone carving in Italy and has participated in symposia and residencies in Norway, South Korea, and China. Musco is a recipient of two Pollock-Krasner Foundation grants and an Edward F. Albee Fellowship, among others. She received an MFA from Boston University and a BA from Bennington College. Musco lives and works in Royalston, Massachusetts.
