Machine Project is pleased to present Snorkel Dreams: A Machine Project Guide to Art Underwater, coming to the Annenberg Community Beach House Pool Friday, October 14th, Saturday, October 15th and Sunday, October 16th from noon to 6pm.

In Machine Project’s first underwater art show, we’ve culled eighteen of the finest artists for a waterlogged weekend of sub-aquatic art-viewing. Grab your swim trunks, snorkel, and goggles and head West to the beach house to see paintings, ceramics, photographs, video, blown glass, and one sunken mannequin, all from the comfort of a chlorinated body of water. This underwater art show is free for all, but the beach house gets crowded fast so consider reserving pool time in advance here.

Participating artists include Andrew Cannon, Jessica Cowley, Bob Dornberger, Emily Joyce, Alice Könitz, Candice Lin, Becca Lofchie, Johnston Marklee, Jennifer Moon & Laub, Paul Pescador, Jennifer Rochlin, Suné Woods, Kim Ye, Patricia Yossen, Mallen&Gray, and Machine Project with Grace Eunchong.
