Astoria Visual Arts

1000 Duane st, Astoria, Oregon

Swamp Concerto is a collaborative exhibition by the artist team Anna Daedalus and Kerry Davis, featuring photographic prints, artist’s books and canvases. The work draws on their three recent projects: Palus (2021), Grounded Glass (2022) and Decomposure (2023-24). All three place-based projects are rooted in the lower Columbia Pacific region, with a focus on a protected Sitka spruce swamp. The team has spent three years observing the wetland through outdoor installations, time-based processes and alternative photographic techniques. As a celebration of a quintessentially Pacific Northwest coastal ecosystem, the exhibition is being presented in conjunction with Earth Day.

On view: April 13–May 5

Gallery Hours: Friday–Sunday, 11–3
