Exclusive Interview: Erik Otto
In anticipation of Terrestrial Syndrome opening Saturday, September 12th
Interview by The Shooting Gallery
From a rusty old hubcap to an abandoned piece of wood, Erik Otto finds inspiration in the decaying remnants of our society.

We hope to see you at Erik Otto’s opening on Saturday, September 12th.
