Exhibition Information
SINCERITY OVERDRIVE consists of artworks, gestures, and projects which invite expanded relationships. Artist-artist, artist-community, artist-public and back again, the artists run the gamut of actively seeking meaningful connection, feeling a distinct absence of it, mocking networking structures, and revealing impromptu, open-ended encounters.
writer bio
SINCERITY OVERDRIVE is curated by Anthea Black, continuing Stride's tradition of director-curated exhibitions, which offer the gallery director an opportunity to investigate and develop a curatorial practice.
