Bobby T Farrell

From Bobby T Farrell’s Artist Statement”
“I love making art. Being creative helps me to express myself and my ideas. Art also helps me to re-invent ways we see places and spaces and for others to use their imagination. Work is one thing that inspires me to make art. I use to be a carpenter but now I work maintenance at Frisbie Hospital. A lot of times at work I see things that are being thrown out or see it as something I can do art on like windows, reflective light panels, old paint or plywood. Also some sculptures come from things I would throw away.”

Engine is and has been a focal point of downtown Biddeford for many years for so many artists and creative spirits. It is a go-to for me: a retreat, a destination, a source for connection and ideas and community.

Engine is a wonderful place to work surrounded by wonderful people who have infused so much love and light into the downtown of Biddeford. I cannot imagine a bright future in the town without this wonderful organization.
