This is the opening weekend of a new show at Wildflowers Too Art Gallery - Found Object Tidal Wave series by South Carolina Artist Susan Lenz.
The show features sculptural seascapes created from found objects, mostly plastic, that would otherwise find themselves in a landfill or in the ocean.
This is a clever and creative series that also reflects the overwhelming force of consumer culture and environmental neglect. It also gives "second life” to many sentimental trinkets, especially for thousands of old buttons. Waves of buttons evoke a sense of movement and memory. The series invites viewers to confront what we save and what we leave behind, and how it all inevitably comes back to us.
Please come see this provocative show. It is fascinating and wonderful .The gallery is open from 11:00 to 4:00 Tuesday through Sunday.
