TeaHouse
2007
The Santa Cruz Art Museum invited me to show with my friend Marc D'Stout, in an exhibition entitled "Gimmee Shelter" in 2003. It seemed natural to venture into making a tea room, having admired these spaces for so long. The room was a 5-mat tea room, with a tokonoma and several sliding doors. All the panels were painted or covered with my large format digital collages. I also designed the large plastic laminate panels with the octopus and bamboo imagery: these were printed by Wilsonart®.
