The theme was 'under the sea.'

I saw a lovely exhibit this evening of sculptures by Sayaka Ganz.  She's the artist who uses recycled materials, mostly plastics, to create fanciful creatures.  This evening's exhibit, at Art Link, was a delightful "underwater" scene featuring a whale, jelly fish, small fish, and a "coral reef" arch all made of an incredible collection of plastic bowls, spatulas, knives, forks, lids, bottle caps and much more.  I really do admire her work.  The whale was so beautiful, with flowing lines and a feeling of motion, that it was very easy to forget what it was made of.  
However I must admit that, as I wandered through the suspended seaweed and fanciful critters, I felt very much like I was in a high school gym decorated for the prom.  But that was fun too.
