Unveiling Party: FLOTSAM
June 18, 2009
Join University of Oregon/South Waterfront Artist in Residence Michael Salter for the final reception and unveiling celebration of his installation FLOTSAM. The result of a 10-week residency at South Waterfront, the installation includes site sculptures, drawings and site-specific painting. Refreshments will be served.
“The random floating debris encountered in the open ocean is referred to as flotsam. I imagine our visual culture to be a sea. A sea filled with flotsam so thick and dangerous that navigating through it is treacherous. Imagine the things we see are bumped into, sometimes even attaching themselves to us, clinging to our consciousness. The work in this show is synthesized – visual – flotsam.”
