Here’s an update for you from Diane Martindale, on the Liminal Currents exhibit designed and directed by Matthew Gray Palmer going on now at Island Museum of Art…

On the 4th of July we had 135 visitors to IMA and about 398 over the whole weekend!

We have reached a landmark! We originally made 1074 pieces of “wish/prayer/blessing” papers for our visitors to write upon. And now, thanks to the weekend turnout, we are running low. Volunteers are tearing mulberry paper today for a new supply! Now, that doesn’t mean that that same number have yet to be completed and hung on the exhibit… but…

We are hanging new wishes high upon the sculpture to leave room for visitors (and you) to tie ones on the lower, more reachable limbs. The wishes and ribbons are dense enough in some areas to really show the Salish Sea greens planned by Matthew.

Feel free to forward to your art-loving friends and encourage them to visit. Do YOU have some photos of LIMINAL CURRENTS to share?
