Rebecca McGee Tuck is a fiber artist, sculptor, and dedicated ocean activist. Her artwork serves as a visual narrative, transforming discarded materials from our throw-away society into revitalized works of art. Tuck's sculptures have been featured in numerous publications and juried exhibitions across the Northeast, including the Danforth Art Museum, Fitchburg Art Museum, Boston Sculptors Gallery, Viridian Artists Gallery in New York City, and the George Marshall Store Gallery in York, Maine.
Tuck has held artist residencies at the New Bedford Whaling National Historical Park and the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, where she collaborated with sculpture and sustainability students to create a massive performative public art installation called “Sculpture Monster: Creature from the Plasticine Era.” This piece was paraded through the cobblestone streets of New Bedford during their Earth Day Celebration in 2024. Her series, “Along the Wrack Line,” addresses the pressing issue of debris and plastic pollution on New England beaches, highlighting the environmental challenges faced by our coastal regions.
