Event: Opening reception of Wavelengths exhibitions, included work by Gretchen Schermerhorn
Date: Friday, June 10
Time: 7 to 9pm
Location: 1241 Good Hope Road, SE
Washington, DC 20020

Gretchen Schermerhorn, Pyramid Atlantic's Artistic Director and
printmaker-artist extraordinaire, is one of four artists featured in Wavelengths, an exhibition curated by the microWave project and hosted by Honfleur Gallery. Gretchen's installation consists of numerous prints on handmade paper hung at different heights and depths. Each of the prints was inspired by the sonic form of peoples' answer to a simple question, "What makes you feel alive?." Gretchen recorded peoples' answers and used the sonic map of the those answers as the basis for each of her prints. A sound component comprised of the recordings collected through out this process will also be included.
If you miss the opening Wavelengths will be up in Honfeur Gallery through July 22.

Above is an image of Gretchen and two interns, Elena and Caroline, installing her piece at the Honfleur Gallery.
