You might prefer an undersea adventure to take place under the actual sea, but if scuba gear's too daunting, head over to the Jonathan LeVine gallery for a salty taste of "Les Trésors de la Tanière de Neptune," a solo exhibition from self-taught Philadelphia-based photographer and sculptor Adam Wallacavage. Inspired by his obsession with the ocean and its creatures, Wallcavage has created several "functional light fixtures" that resemble octopi dangling from the ceiling. The fully illuminated sea-creatures come in various sizes and vibrant hot pink and sea green colors, and they're surrounded by custom-made wallpaper designed by Wallacavage himself.
