That's Spider Hole, after Saddam Hussein's "spider hole," made by the artist Leo Berk. It is huge, and comes right at you in the gallery.
In my review of Berk's show at Lawrimore Project, out today, I declare the sculpture the greatest obscenity to be made in Seattle art in years. Read about it here.
More images of the show here.

Looks as if that big yellow block was mighty happy to see such a hot art critic as Jen in the gallery!
Sorry, Ms. Graves, nothing personal, I just couldn't resist.

From your review: "But the tunnel that snakes off the entry box and comes at your face as you enter the gallery..."
Oh dear!
Oh dear!
