Baukunst First Fridays: High Fiber + Tequila

Yesterday at 5pm · San Francisco

✨Join us for Baukunst First Friday, where we will be celebrating the closing reception of "High Fiber", an exhibition that explores textiles as surfaces of labor, memory, and transformation. ...also, California-based tequila and mezcal producer Nosotros will be providing a comprehensive tasting of their award-winning spirits! More on High Fiber: Textiles are all around us. We encounter them daily—worn, touched, used, and relied upon—often without noticing. They can be large or intimate in scale, typically soft yet sometimes rigid or resistant, prompting questions about how textiles operate when considered as art. Through processes of pleating, quilting, folding, sculpting, dyeing, and over-dyeing, textiles become sites of experimentation and transformation. Long associated with utility and craft, textile materials in this exhibition are considered as art: as surfaces that record time and labor, as structures that hold memory, and as forms that blur distinctions between function and sculpture. Stretchy or stiff, porous or dense, these works invite close looking and bodily awareness, asking our mediums to be read not only as material, but as language. Featuring work by: 
Katherine Akey 
Bodil Fox 
Evie Hidysmith 
Lindsay Langsdale 
Grace Ledoux 
Meaty Ocher
Sarah Moss-Horwitz 
Philippa Renshaw 
Amy Giovanna Rinaldi

Khoi Pham: Matter of Time - Opening Reception

Today at 4pm · Oakland

Join us for the opening of MATTER OF TIME with Bay Area artist Khoi Pham (@khoibpham) at Two Two in Oakland. Pham’s work, often printed on aluminum, begins with a camera, isolating fragments of the physical world. Through drawing, digital distortion and reconstruction, these fragments are stretched beyond their origins. The works linger between observation and transformation, where the everyday is not simply documented, but intensified, taking on a strange and luminous presence. We’re honored to have Khoi’s work at Two Two this spring and hope you’ll join us to celebrate and meet the artist! Opening reception will feature a show-specific audio sculpture by Sab Mai (@bodega.superstar) and bites by Cyn (@sea2sea.co)

His most recent record, Flowers on the Road, is out now!  Get to know Lucy: Born in a bathtub in a cookie factory in California, Lucy Clearwater is an acoustic folk/Americana singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and nature-loving old soul with a background in classical violin.

Join us for the opening of MATTER OF TIME with Bay Area artist Khoi Pham (@khoibpham) at Two Two in Oakland. Pham’s work, often printed on aluminum, begins with a camera, isolating fragments of the physical world. Through drawing, digital distortion and reconstruction, these fragments are stretched beyond their origins. The works linger between observation and transformation, where the everyday is not simply documented, but intensified, taking on a strange and luminous presence. We’re honored to have Khoi’s work at Two Two this spring and hope you’ll join us to celebrate and meet the artist! Opening reception will feature a show-specific audio sculpture by Sab Mai (@bodega.superstar) and bites by Cyn (@sea2sea.co)
