Inheriting a collection of objects or information that is evidence of someone’s obsession can be a gift, a burden, a responsibility. Ultimately you have to ask if you’ve inherited the obsession as well. Four artists have come together, each with their own inherited collection and the desire to re-catalog as a transformative act, ultimately answering questions about their own obsessions.

Daily Drawings
The work of tracking the Andrew Foss as it moves about the Puget Sound is made possible by satellites in the sky.

Each new day is stacked in front of the last day, allowing a glimpse into the routine and graceful movements of a working tugboat.
