Exterior View, 1980
Cheryl Goldsleger
(American, born 1951)
Location: Sunnyside Elementary, Port Orchard
ABOUT THE ARTWORK
Artist Cheryl Goldsleger based Exterior View on architectural drawings. She creates a sense of depth using isometric perspective. Isometric means "equal measure." In this technique, the objects appear three dimensional, but do not recede in space. She filled the composition with chairs, stairs, and walls. She notes that this piece points to underlying issues of "time, distance, and solitude."
This artwork was acquired for the State Art Collection in partnership with South Kitsap School District.
