Guilford, CT — Take a deeper look into the ocean’s depths with Casey Potts, GAC Resident Potter, and Marsha Borden, GAC Teaching Artist, as they present their side-by-side solo shows at Guilford Art Center August 8 through 31, 2025. There will be a free opening reception Sunday, August, 10 from 2pm to 4 pm.   

Into the Deep: A World Within is a medley of marine-themed artworks in a variety of mediums, including fiber, textiles, ceramics, and stoneware. 

Marsha Borden

A recipient of the University of Connecticut’s competitive Sea Grant Award in 2022, Marsha Borden’s work depicts larger-than-life artistic replicas of various microalgae that live in Long Island Sound. Casey Potts’ work represents the culmination of a year-long Artist-In-Residence program at Guilford Art Center where every piece invites a second look. Inspired by the ocean’s layered ecosystems, Potts’ and Borden’s work celebrates the magic found beneath the surface—worlds within worlds, often unseen but always present.
