As we march ahead through another Northwest winter, artist Heidi Keith has created an ambitious installation to help us cope. Saving Daylight presents a meticulously painted grid of 182 paintings that chronicle the movement of light and color in the sky from winter to summer solstice. Pictorially documenting the 182 days between Dec. 21 and June 21, each of the closely related but individually distinct 8 x 8-inch paintings captures the light in the sky over Portland at exactly 7:00 in the morning.
