Sculpted and carved pumpkins abound in this spooktacular Halloween pop-up display featuring the work of Cambridge-based artist, Greg Latimer.
About the artist
Greg Latimer is a local once-a-year artist who sculpts pumpkins, squashes, and potatoes, and writes about himself in the third person. He skins and sculpts unsuspecting fruits and vegetables with clay ribbon sculpting tools and then preserves his work in various glass containers filled with vinegar. Don't worry though- The rest of the year he's actually pretty normal. Greg won the Cambridge Public Library Pumpkin Carving Contest last year and demonstrated his skills at an Artist-at-Work showcase at the Kitchener Public Library in 2019. He lives in Cambridge with his son, who also loves carving pumpkins.
