​SOIL Gallery, Seattle Washington, April

2006

An immersive and transformative installation. Keying in on the concept of absurd optimism the gallery is an interactive space alive with; object, sound and projection. The idea of absurd optimism plays off the ideal of futurism we grew up with, melded with our own current artistic sensibilities. The altered space is a new world of our own creation, with architectural elements that invite the viewer to explore the space and the future that is now. The work is an exciting collaboration between the artists, ambitious in concept, design and realization. (SOIL press release)

A five person collaboration explore absurd optimism.  Saya Moriyasu primarily worked on the Geo cheer piece with Jenny Heishman.  Also shown is her tiny people (available via www.ggibsongallery.com)
