Suddenly: Where we live now is a project that encompasses many installations and experiments that will take place around the globe, each tackling in some way the question of how we build and relate to our environment, namely that of the city. The Seattle installment will be on view in Pioneer Square from July 5th through the 15th, with an opening reception this Friday. This exhibit is part of Michael Hebb’s Corridor Project, which has had him walking 32 miles in California to cook dinner on an I-5 median and assembling a dinner party on uninhabited Ross Island in Portland. For the latest Corridor Project, which is the exhibit debuting Friday, Hebb lived on an I-5 median for three days along with artists Hannes Wingate and Michael McManus. They brought little, creating shelter, fire pit, and all necessities of survival from what was available on the median. Running in to Hebb this week and seeing his scabby, blistered hands, me thinks lessons were taught and resolves tested. He said, “I learned I’m only so much of a survivalist, and making fire from just a fire kit is extremely difficult.” Footage and photographs of their trials make up the exhibit.
