Art Tooth is excited to announce our newest exhibition in the #ArtSouth Container at the SoMa District Fort Worth Micro park. Artist Stephen Wettermark’s anamorphic installation, “Stalactites” will be on view to the public from December 21 through February 28.

The piece will be comprised of several dozen rolls of white bond paper suspended from the ceiling of the #ArtSouth container, painted with bright colors to reveal different anamorphic shapes that will only be visible from viewers at specific vantage points. Described as an indoor forest, “Stalactites” is designed to invoke the excitement and intrigue of a trip to the science museum, the discovery of new information, and the exploration of new ideas.

Architect and artist Stephen Wettermark says that he was inspired to pursue this work after seeing an artist talk at the Ann Arbor science museum by street chalk artist David Zinn who brings life to pareidolic, anamorphic creations. The idea for “Stalactites” was further inspired by Stephen’s observations of the way humans use their phones--hunched over, looking downward to browse the web or read a text. This installation will require viewers to shift their viewpoint, to look up, and to move throughout the open-space to catch certain images they may not have seen before.

We invite you to visit the SoMa District Fort Worth Micro park any time beginning December 21 to experience this architecturally impactful installation. The ArtSouth container is open to the public, 7 days a week, 24 hours a day.
