Featuring an expanding network of Bay Area artists, (3 words) is a visual and verbal art game in which the exhibition theme mutates playfully over the course of the show. An artist chooses one work of art and describes it to another artist in just 3 words. Using those words as a prompt, the second artist chooses a work of their own to exhibit, then shares 3 words about that piece to a third artist. And so on, until the gallery is filled.

Will artworks added later in the game retain traces of the original theme, or will they forge into entirely new territory? We’ll follow the threads and find out.

Artists:
Holly Bobisuthi, Lana Capron, Tanya Gill, Ella Rose Ledyard, Julia Ledyard, Martin Ledyard, Nichol Markowitz, Phil McGaughy, Luca McGrath, Joshua Moreno, Lucía Moreno Nava, Sun Park, Miguel Ramos, Matt Reynolds, Naomi Alessandra Schultz, Carroll Swenson-Roberts, Rebecca Szeto, Chelsea América Torres, Eleanor Trombla, Saint Urbano, Whitney Vangrin, Margot Vaughan, Hayoung Yun, and more!

Curator: Naomi Alessandra Schultz
