Threshold Presents Todd Smith
03.18.2011 Threshold
Syndicate: An association of people or firms authorized to undertake a duty or transact specific business
Syndicate Smith LLC, was created by owner Todd Smith in May of 2010. Todd wished to create a truly service driven, full spectrum design shop, encompassing all of his design & artistic passions. After eight great years at Johnston Architects PLLC, a small architectural firm in Seattle, Todd decided to leave his principal position to create his own company. Taking from his experience designing projects for clients ranging from real estate developers to prospective home owners, and combining them with other design/artistic interests, Todd decided to seek different project opportunities and collaborations. Photography is just one of those many opportunities.
Blocks: They were what we used to play with. Worlds created and destroyed with friends or by one’s self. Such simple assemblies.
Todd Smith’s latest exhibition, Blocks, includes (75) 20“x20” photos, taken in a single session as an exercise to capture the purest of forms created by the assemblies of classic wooden blocks. His goal is not to convince importance of the imagery, because quite frankly they may not be that important or intriguing to others as they are to him. His goal is to show the purest imagery of a classic toy, a spatial and formal learning tool and a memory perhaps of all of our childhoods.
Opening Reception: Thursday, March 24 from 5-7pm
Show Dates: March 24 – May 3, 2011
