Broadway Public Art


i was on Broadway in Seattle visiting my cousin the other day and we were on our way to catch a late dinner and out of no where in the store windows there were works of art. it was so crazy. it was kinda dark so the displays stood out like a sore thumb.
thinking about it this would have been a totally cool project to do because these works of art are in a place that is part of the everyday and to display it in store windows makes a statement.
these artists use different mediums to display their art. there was this one display that used strings of light to produce the artwork. the string of lights were placed in a way that formed an octopus in an ally way. i wish i could find more pictures but i didnt have my camera and i dont know where online to look.
anyways just digging deeper in to the way these works of art are displayed, one could walk down broadway and just think that every store is the same when all of a sudden BAM! these displays are there. in a place that is out of the ordinary. and is apart of our everyday life.
