Mithun

Now showing at Mithun’s Threshold Gallery: Interior Hunter, works by Guy Palmer Merrill. Please join us for a reception with the artist tomorrow, April 6th, from 5–7pm.

Using digital photography, Merrill samples his surroundings, deconstructing elements of the built and natural environment which are then recombined in collage and painting. Remnants of a demolished building fill a plaza as if strange geology had abruptly taken place. Pathways cut through landscapes, creating portals to different realms. The membrane between interior and exterior is dissolved, and an interconnected system forms in its place. Human figures and Merrill’s sculptural experiments are also present—either in or outside the frame, as observers or inhabitants.

Threshold Gallery was established by Mithun in 2008 to connect people with art, artists and the built environment, as well as to inspire and drive our work as designers. The gallery is located within our Seattle offices at Pier 56, and is open to the public weekdays from 9am - 5pm.
