Join us for Art Walk on Thursday, July 14th
Please join us for the Downtown Art Walk debut of Coral Forest, an interactive art installation by Los Angeles-based artist Doron Gazit.
Coral Forest Artist Reception with Doron Gazit
Thursday, July 14, 2016
4-6 p.m.
Hosted by Preux & Proper
840 S Spring St. Los Angeles, CA 90014
Please RSVP to info@fashiondistrict.org
Coral Forest is an interactive installation made up of 10 giant "sea forms" that are moved and rearranged to create a new shape every time the installation is displayed. The inflatable art uses air as a medium and explores how people interact with the element. The inflatables were inspired by the Fashion District and made of fabric that was hand dyed to create the impression of texture. The public is invited to walk through, touch, and take selfies with the art.
