Sarah Thompson Moore: Outside-In

A brisk stroll through downtown Spokane’s Riverfront Park will tell you all you need to know about Coeur d’Alene-based artist Sarah Thompson Moore. Her large-scale piece of public art, “The Seeking Place,” was installed in the park in 2022 with its large metal panels inspired by our region’s basalt outcroppings. A new solo exhibition at Whitworth’s Bryan Oliver Gallery showcases Moore’s work that leans on the smaller side of things. Through the pieces in the show, the artist draws upon her experience creating public installations that contemplate nature, history and the characteristics of a place. She even uses leftover materials from past projects. Reduce, reuse, recycle, re-envision and make your way to Whitworth to see this worthwhile show.
