The Metalsmith and the Urn

Hello all, 

I wanted to let you all know about a show I have helped curate and will take part in this Fall at Lundgren Monuments in Seattle, WA.

We continue our exploration of craft and design with a new focus on the Metalsmith approaching the urn as sculptural object. This promises to be an exciting, inventive exploration of the cremation urn featuring some of the Pacific Northwest's master craftspeople. Exhibited in our downtown boutique, it is a dizzying display of what an urn could be, fostering conversation and imagination, and broadening our design communities participation and understanding the role of art in our lives and our death. Reception, October 3rd, 5:00 to 8:00 pm.
