82-year old artist Fred Eversley first worked for NASA before a tragic car accident shifted his focus to creating highly-labored optical sculpture (that story and a look at his insane process is in the 11-minute video below). His NEW work on view through this Saturday is bigger than ever. I just wrote an article about it on Design Milk, but long story short: These are solid resin sculptures measuring 7-9 feet tall. If you go alone, you're missing the most exciting part of the show! Each sculpture also functions like a fun-house-mirror lens that distorts other viewers in the room. So, with friends or strangers, don't see it alone.
Bonus: In the above photo, check out the 2 people taking a picture of us (top left) and the family with 2 kids reflected on bottom right. Every sculpture is simultaneously a thing to look "at", a thing to look "through", and a thing to see what's "behind you".
