Juneau artist Rachael Juzeler has a piece on display at Carkeek Park in Seattle through September.
The piece is “Alder in the Rain [summer]” and is an outdoor chandelier. Juzeler re-fired it after it returned from the All-Alaska Bienniel and was accepted into this show, the Outdoor Art Exhibit at Carkeek Park Heaven & Earth VIII, so that it could hang outside.
According to a release from show project coordinator David Francis, “Since 2009, Heaven and Earth has explored art and nature in a rapidly changing climate. The exhibition (is) one of the few in the United States to occur in a public park (urban forest).”
“I am endlessly fascinated by the antiquity and ruins of my surroundings and create visually stunning chandeliers, glass works and often times functional works of art re-using materials which would otherwise find themselves in a landfill,” Juzeler wrote on the exhibit’s website.
The exhibition is open every day until Sept. 25. More information is at http://heavenandearth.carkeekpark.org/index.htm. More information on Juzeler is at http://www.ratchetconstructs.com/
