SINKS, CLOSETS, FIXTURES, FLOWS

October 6, 2023 - December 2, 2023

Tulsa Artist Fellowship invites our neighbors to experience "Sinks, Closets, Fixtures, Flows” by Tulsa Artist Fellowship awardee Richard Zimmerman. A series of sculptural works made from plumbing components, including pipes, porcelain fixtures, and tiles. Situated on the Archer Studios Roof Terrace of the Tulsa Artist Fellowship, these works celebrate elements of an omnipresent and frequently unnoticed or hidden infrastructure that binds the city together.
