11.14.08 // Two Tiny Bones is pleased to present "Dissolve," a mixed media exhibition of installation, sculpture, and works on paper by eight San Francisco and out of state artists who have set out to dissect and interpret the conceptual, emotional, and cultural constructs of the word 'dissolve.' These artists share individual histories of consistently, vulnerably, and uniquely unpacking uncomfortable, socio-political, and/or emotional themes in their bodies of work, and we are honored and excited to present this collection of vital and powerful voices. Please join us to experience the artistic unfoldings of Alicia Humphries, Sydney Brown Tarman, Chrystal Powell, Shelley Monahan, Nicole Bennet, Lex McQuilkin, Brit Howard, and Mike Steinmetz. Sub/Mission (formerly Balazo 18) gallery. 2183 Mission St. San Francisco, CA 94100
