Lonnie Hutson, Swimming in Circles
Precarity & Resilience of Native Northwest Fish
January 16-March 29th, 2025
Opening Reception: Thursday, January 16th, 6:00-8:00pm
Imagine the world without free-flowing rivers, wild salmon or the 175 million year-old great white sturgeon, North America’s largest freshwater fish. Swimming in Circles is a collection of paper relief sculptures, documenting native fish species including the threatened or endangered chinook salmon, steelhead, bull trout, sockeye salmon, and white sturgeon. Native fish are a barometer for river health. This work brings awareness to ecological concerns, sparking conversations about maintaining and/or rebuilding our natural resources for everyone and everything with an interest in a healthy sustainable future. – Lonnie Hutson
