I’ll be opening my studio door next week for First Thursday. That’s May 6th. I’ll be there all day until 8:30 or 9 pm, so feel free to stop by early if you can’t later. If I don’t answer the door, I’m over atUwajimaya buying supplies.
I’m across the street from the International District bus tunnel entrance. A perfect stop betweenPioneer Square and Lawrimore Project.
Stephen is on vacation (well deserved) and I’m sitting the gallery for him today. I get to spend time with Adam’s exceptional photos.
Helicopter, archival pigment print, 40 x 63 inches, 2009, edition of 5
From the press release:
Adam Satushek pays close attention to the ways that human beings influence their surroundings through the traces that are left behind and the impact on the landscape from behaviors, movements, and alterations. His work captures the odd and unintended intersections of common, forgotten objects with the natural environment; an environment which then must bear the mark of that uninvited partnership and struggle mightily to maintain its dignity.
They are LARGE and beautifully printed. And odd – in a good way.
Adam’s photos are on view through May 8, 2010 at Platform Gallery.
Rebecca wanted to find some sun for her birthday, so we headed to Eastern Washington the first week of April. Grand Coulee to be specific.
Once we crossed the mountains the sun shone and our spirits lifted. First stop, Frenchman’s Coulee.
We hiked around for an hour or so, enjoying the sun. We saw wild flowers, an abandoned car and this:
We got back in the car, hit the road and stopped for lunch in Soap Lake at the B & B Drive-In. We hoped we would see Claude Zervas who has property here, but he must’ve been back in Seattle.
