An underwater seascape pelted with red droplets descending from above: This is what you’ll see walking along University Street through August 23. Fuzzy Anatomies, a window installation by Timea Tihanyi, is informed by the artist’s medical training, as well as her interest in things plush and felted. Her baby-blue clumps of tall grass are crafted from fabric. Above them, red, round, stuffed shapes are strung on lines of red thread. One red circle is caught on a single blade of grass. These plush scarlet spheres are reminiscent of both stuffed animals and globules of blood (perhaps as seen through a microscope). The grasses are organic, uneven forms with curvy, waving edges—possessed of a sense of movement. These richly-hued fabrics also echo the luxury fashions seen in nearby boutique windows. Also on view as part of this “Summer Introductions” exhibit are what looks like a gilded quilt by Eva Speer (in wood and 14-karat gold), swelling near its center; Francesca Berrini’s reimagined maps; and Leslie Stoner’s splatter-patterned encaustics. Tihanyi’s piece, best seen from the street, is easily the strongest work in the show. SAM Gallery, 1220 Third Ave., 343-1101, www.seattleartmuseum.org. Free. 10:30 a.m.–5 p.m. ADRIANA GRANT
