Opening: Sprickle

The Railyard Park Conservancy’s Railyard Art Project presents an opening celebration for James Gould’s Sprickle, a mixed media installation on exhibit in the Railyard Park’s Open Field through June 15th. Constructed primarily with reclaimed wood and metal, Sprickle draws inspiration from neglected structures like barns and outbuildings that have been left to weather and disintegrate. Pieces of the installation are intentionally missing, creating a visual celebration of light and shadow meant to evoke our agricultural heritage, places of shelter and perhaps even a spirit house. Stop by to meet the artist and enjoy some Java Joe’s coffee and Boultawn’s bagels. Event attendees also will be allowed special access inside the Sprickle structure.

This project is being supported in part by New Mexico Arts, a division of the Department of Cultural Affairs, by the National Endowment for the Arts, and by the City of Santa Fe’s Arts and Culture Department.
