In coordination with the City of Kirkland and the Kirkland Cultural Arts Commission, King County Engineering for Kids and the Kirkland Arts Center presents a community exhibit that features a collection of six, colorful outdoor works by Ed McCarthy displayed along Park Lane Ave. to enhance the cultural vibrancy of Kirkland.
The sculpture project explores cityscapes and the individual. And Ed McCarthy has a background in architecture and engineering and incorporates both architectural and structural form into his sculptures. He gives new meaning to the term “industrial art” by creating steel objects reminiscent of machinery or manufacturing tools through abstract and geometric shapes he calls “Pareidolia People.”
The colorful and playful steel objects will be on display on Park Lane in Kirkland for over a year, from July 13, 2018 through July 15, 2019. For more information, contact the Kirkland Arts Center at 425-822-7161.
