SEATTLE, Sept. 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Renowned Seattle contemporary visual artist Cristina Martinez will unveil her latest public art installation, titled In Full Bloom, at Pembroke's Fairview Market Hall, located at 400 Fairview Ave N., in the lively South Lake Union neighborhood. The installation, curated and produced by GCS Agency, will launch on September 26, 2024, with an event open to the public.

In Full Bloom is a powerful reflection on personal growth, depicted through stunning visual symbolism across four large-scale interconnected panels that span both the north and south entrances of 400 Fairview's Fairview Market Hall. The installation features four artworks including two compelling portraits alongside a hand holding a book with the text "I'm so happy you're here," creating an invitation to reflect on one's journey. A butterfly, symbolizing transformation, ties the panels together, emphasizing the continuous nature of growth.

"We wanted this artwork to reflect the growth we all experience in life and the beauty of embracing every step of that journey," says Martinez, who draws inspiration from her own roots in Seattle and the people who have shaped her artistic vision.

"At Pembroke we create places for people. By collaborating with local artists, we not only support the community but also enhance the vibrancy of SLU's bustling Fairview Market Hall. Our commitment is to amplify the experience both for the community who gather and connect here and our eclectic mix of shops and eateries by fostering an energetic and engaging environment" says Stacey Spurr of Pembroke.

The installation will be celebrated with a special launch event on September 26, 2024, at the North Entrance at 400 Fairview Ave N, where the public can meet the artist and view the artwork for the first time. This project is part of an ongoing initiative by Pembroke and GCS Agency to integrate art into everyday spaces and enrich the community experience.
