Heaven and Earth III: Cycles of Return
Outdoor Sculpture Exhibition at Point Shilshole Beach & Carkeek Park
organized by Center on Contemporary Art (COCA)
Curated by David Francis
Site D: (Interactive) Canvases
porcelain, steel wire
Events: come join me for a mid-morning observation, interaction, and conversation during one or all of the low tides:
September 9, 9-11am: 0.39 feet low tide
September 10, 10-12pm: 0.79 feet low tide
September 11, 10-1pm: 1.23 feet low tide
6413 Seaview Ave NW
(behind COCA Gallery)
Seattle, Washington
*enter the beach through a small passageway between the fence and CoCA's gallery
This project was supported, in part, by an award from 4Culture.
(Interactive) Canvases is an outdoor installation of blank white canvas-like forms of fired porcelain where viewers
are invited to participate in the art making process, altering clay canvases by drawing or painting on them. Nature
plays an even more important role in the alteration process, since all work is displayed in the marine environment,
thus exposed to natural elements of tide, algae growth, and barnacles. Nature thus controls what is left of the
artwork, whether anything remains or is washed away. Potentially there could be layers upon layers of work created
on top of one another, with residues of all remaining.
(Interactive) Canvases are visible during low tide and completely immersed in water during high tide.
Tide schedule
I invite all viewers to explore the work and alter the surfaces of canvases.
