WAVES: Warm Up
Site-specific installation by Erik Otto
August 6th-September 1st, 2019
7 days a week, 11am–7pm
Thursday late night, 11am–9pm
318 Canal Street, New York City
Opening Night: Thursday, August 15, 6-9pm
Leading up to the full display of his most recent collection of work, Otto will transform a temporary space along Canal Street into an immersive installation combining paint, light, video and sound — offering viewers a sense of what’s to come.
Splashes of vibrant hues, loose lines, and rippling patterns flood the entirety of the space referencing both turbulent and gentle waters. Contrasting colors lead you to the back of the room where the two walls of water-inspired imagery collide into a moment of heightened intensity. To complete the environment there will be a video profiling the upcoming show along with an atmospheric soundtrack adding to the ambience.
Screen prints will be available for purchase at an exclusive discount opening night.
