CURRENTLY SHOWING:
STUCK ON U
March 13th, 6-10pm
Stuck on U by Amanda James Parker takes the nostalgia of ‘90s fridge poetry and cranks up the heat. In this interactive installation, Parker invites guests to engage in the art of sexting, one magnetic word at a time. Sourced from the artist’s own (expertly crafted) sexts, these oversized word magnets can be arranged on wall-mounted panels shaped like text message bubbles. Whether you’re team iPhone (blue and grey) or an Android renegade (green and grey), the gallery becomes an open forum for playful, public desire. Part social experiment, part erotic poetry workshop, Stuck on U explores technology, intimacy, and just how bold people are willing to get IRL. And for those who want to keep the conversation going, the words are for sale—so your fridge can start talking dirty, too.
UPCOMING:
GOOD BOY GRAFFITI
April 10th, 6-10pm
Good Boy Graffiti marks a new phase in the work of Tom DesLongchamp, where delicate pen drawings are reborn as bold, black-and-white line paintings on cut-out wood panels—designed for the outdoors and made with house paint to withstand the elements.
What began as small drawings stapled to telephone poles has evolved into large-scale, site-specific pieces that blur the line between public and private art. The artist only seeks out unclaimed spaces, transforming overlooked corners of the city into unexpected open-air galleries. DesLongchamp’s works, which can be easily removed and taken home by passersby, reflect a playful tension between permission and presence.
Now, he’s bringing these once-scattered works together in a single space, offering a rare chance to experience them as a cohesive collection rather than through chance encounters.
SELF HELP
May 8th, 6-10pm
Self Help is a new collection of sculptural book paintings by Seattle artist Brandon Vosika. Humor and sentiment collide in this showcase of imagined novels and “how-to’s” you won’t find on any bestseller list.
Carved out of discarded wood from a previous show at the gallery, each piece unveils a story of the artist’s innermost fears and desires.
“These are books I wish existed,” says Vosika. “So I made them real.”
