Shift Collaborative Studio is proud to present Tainted Dream, a new body of work by John Sloan. Tainted Dream is a photographic exploration into the manufactured culture of stereotypes and desire found in children’s toys.

The works in this current series of photographs are a tribute as well as a study of his major artistic influences. Within this context, Sloan has adapted themes from previous eras in an attempt to question the strange world in which we still find ourselves.

The artist will be in attendance each Saturday during the show. Shift Studio is located at 306 S. Washington St, #105 in the Tashiro Kaplan Building in Pioneer Square. Regular gallery hours are Friday and Saturday 12pm-5pm.

Shift is a collaborative artistʼs studio that opened in the fall of 2004 in the renovated Tashiro Kaplan Arts Complex. Shift was established as an artist-run space with the primary goal of supporting emergent, practicing, Northwest artists.
