Be a Part of Prospect Fields at Platform Gallery
Viewing Prospect Fields, the current exhibit at Platform Gallery, is a bit like being a mouse in a maze. Except that you’ll get your bits of cheese along the way instead of just at the end.
Seattle resident Eric Eley has created an exhibit that does more than put stuff on the walls and floors of a gallery. His installation of sculptures helps guide you through the exhibit, moving you this way and that as you take stock of what there is to see. The installation itself becomes part of the art on display, and as you wend your way through, it’s almost as if the viewer has become a part of the display as well.
Eley has resin drawings and works on paper in additional to his sculptures, and delights in an analytical use of lines and points that force us to see the ordinary (string, wire, wood, etc.) a little bit differently.
Location: Tashiro-Kaplan arts complex, 114 Third Avenue South, Pioneer Square (map it)
Dates & Hours: Thursday - Saturday, 11 am - 5:30 pm. Exhibit runs through February 9th.
Admission: free

His work sounds very interesting. I have not heard of him before, but I am sure that I haven’t hear of a lot of artists. Cindi
