There's a bar in Seattle called the Summit Public House. In the bathroom, there's a mirror covered in scratches and crude graffiti. There's also a local art gallery called The Lawrimore Project, where there are five identical copies of this scratched–up mirror. Suddenly, vandalism becomes art. It's part of a new exhibit by a Seattle collective called SuttonBeresCuller. Artist and critic Gary Faigin told KUOW's Jeremy Richards how the mirror exhibit is just one way these artists find art in everyday objects.
