Fulcrum Gallery Presents:
Visions from the Other Side (Surrealistic Portraits, a Group Show)
May 17th to July 14th
Opening Reception: Thursday May 17th 6-9 pm
Larkin Cypher
Kelsi Finney
Jeremy Gregory
Keith Carter
This collection of anthropomorphic portraits done in the classical style blurs the lines of reason. These surrealistic visions evoke an imaginary world where animal, vegetable, mineral make friends and converse as if neighbors discussing the weather. Nothing is left unexplored and anything is to be expected. Artists Larkin Cypher, Kelsi Finney, Jeremy Gregory, and Keith Carter conjure up their individual characters in this unique parade of imagery.
Fulcrum Gallery Presents:
Nightwatchman
Photo Installation by Sharon Styer
May 17th to July 14th Opening Reception: Thursday May 17th 6-9 pm
Dimly lit alleyways, secluded shops, illuminated interiors, a movement, a sound, a momentary hesitation. Quiet solace, but not quite alone. It is nighttime Tacoma. Let your eyes adjust to an alternate world of security cameras and Nightwatchman.
I am an urban landscape photographer. I moved to Tacoma six years ago and Tacoma persists as my steadfast subject. I’ve grown up with photography. I have photos my great grandfather took in the early 1900’s. My dad picked up the photo habit. We had a dark room in the basement and prints pressed flat in the heavier books around our home. -Sharon Styer

In celebration of the 46th annual NCECA ceramic conference Fulcrum Gallery presents Creatures of Habit. Artists Heather Cornelius and Spencer Ebbinga explore both the human and the animal consciousness. Heather uses her smooth visual language to articulate messages of feminine ideals and iconography. Similarly Spencer opens up his subconscious to us by extracting his surrealistic visions from the dream state and giving them physical form.

Di Wunder Forst
(Dehanna Jones – Christmas Glass Spectacular!)
Dec 8 to Dec 24th
Opening Reception: Thursday December 15th 6-9 pm
“Di Wunder Forst” is a monolith of eye candy. This contemporary glass installation embodies all of the iconic configurations of glass that are associated with the contemporary Seattle Glass movement. This especially blingy installation also pays tribute to the tradition of over the top holiday window displays. Oddly enough Dehanna Jones describes herself as a “Glass Minimalist”. This title applies more to the execution of her work than to the overall face melting Color-Bomb glass art that she creates.
