Hardesty Arts center

This is the Hardesty Arts Center, also know as the AHHA building, in Tulsa, Oklahoma. The AHHA was built in 2012 for the Arts & Humanities Council of Tulsa and is used as an art gallery and studio space. I really love this building because it’s a symbol of gathering for the Tulsa arts community, and really grew during my high school years when I felt more appreciation for art. 

When it comes to the physical space, I find it so interesting that it seems like a heavy and sharp-shaped building, with the concrete walls and metal details, while at the same time feeling so soft and light while inside. I think that their walls of windows letting in natural light must be part of this effect. I also find it so interesting how the space itself is so neutral and has held so many creative sculptures and other forms of artwork.
