Join Pop Up: Inflated Sculpture featured artist Claire Ashley to enter, explore, and experience her inflated sculpture works. The artist, who “seeks to explode the possibilities for painting,” works beyond canvas’s traditionally rigid physical limitations by using amorphously shaped sculpture and employs loud colors, irregular shapes, and an exaggerated scale. Encounter sculpture like never before in this unique opportunity to go inside her inflatables. Free with Museum admission. Drop-in activity.
