! “John Roloff: Permanent Installa-tion.” Located beneath the I-5 freeway corridor that runs through Seattle’s Eastlake neighborhood. John Roloff. An artificial microclimate with cycling light and intermittent rain that replicate the light and weather conditions from each day in 1960, the year before work began on Interstate 5. The artist effectively eliminates the concrete barrier created by the road overhead, taking the area back in time. The centerpiece of this simu-lated ecosystem is four densely planted trees representing different climates and for their relation to the color white, a “ghostly” color meant to evoke the past neighborhood that occupied the site. By relating the past to the present and con-necting the native climate to geographi-cally diverse flora, The Seventh Climate spans the elements of time and distance and inspires the formation of new chronological and spatial relationships.
