Dreamtime Tacoma
a par five odyssey
Dreamtime Tacoma was probably the most fun piece of art at Showcase Tacoma. It was an installation sculpture consisting of the topography of Tacoma. At the last minute, Oliver decided to also make it into a miniature golf course. There were various places to tee off from and the hole was located in Tacoma's Hilltop neighborhood, where Fulcrum Gallery sits.
All of the elements of the "map" were made to be durable and withstand being walked upon, hit with a golf club, and hit with a plastic golf ball. A glue gun was at the ready to reattach any of the wood block skyscrapers, tin can buildings and warehouses of the Port of Tacoma, or green sponge and foam trees that were accidentally removed during swings of the club.
The child especially liked this. She did as well during her turn playing the hole as Troy's Work Table, which was "not very."
