Meet: Marshall Hibbard

FACETIME Silent Auction Artist: Marshall Hibbard


Marshall Hibbard is an artist, photographer. Marshall Hibbard was born in 1981 in Helena, Montana.  Raised on his family ranch, Marshall has always drawn immense inspiration from the rich landscapes surrounding him; the animals and structures that have lived, died and decayed in it’s grasp.  Marshall’s work focuses on the passage of time, documenting the change and metamorphosis that time leaves in its wake.
Marshall is on the forefront of the urban exploration movement as it engulfs Montana in an elusive uproar of underground enthusiasm. His passion for abandoned spaces has always existed innately within him. Places that tell stories of generations who have lived and died have always fascinated him in intangible ways. His work speaks to the sense of connection that exists through the passage of time within a singular space. Layers upon layers of decomposition that construct amazing stories of life, death and everything in between.
"Once, Lost (Blankenbaker Road)"
Marshall’s works have been widely exhibited. They have been featured in solo exhibitions and have been included in juried, invitational and group shows at a variety of galleries and public art museums. His work has been purchased for numerous private and public collections and some of his works reside in the permanent collections of The University of Montana Permanent Art Collection.
He is proud to call Montana his home and continues to draw inspiration from this majestic landscape.
