Glad To See You
Teamlump is Lump Lipshitz, Jerstin Crosby, Stewart Sineath, Tory
Wright, Allyson Mellberg, Gary Smith, K Whole, Josh Rickards, and
Jeremy Taylor.
We join together around the Raleigh-based Project
space Lump Gallery founded by Bill Thelen aka Lump Lipshitz, but not
everyone lives in Raleigh or North Carolina. We put together
collaborative group shows that allow our individual voices to remain
sticky, gooey, sexy, robotic, bleeding, redneck, bald, diseased,
beautiful, and campy.
‘Glad To See You’ embodies a sense of nihilistic transience. For
Space 1026, Teamlump is creating a big country squater environment,
complete with full size truck camper like those on sale at Zervs but constructed from cardboard and wood scraps. Behind the camper will be a small crop of marijuana
plants and coming from the corner is a infinite highway that stretches
across the gallery floor.
This atmosphere along with all the other
great work going into the show, creates an omni-present loner and
celebrates those who exist ‘off the grid’, and live off the land.
