Press Release:
Sally Centigrade presents our first ever group show! Ohhhh, but not just any group show, it’s a wild one: 45 pieces of wood were cut into 5.5” x 7” diamond shapes, and shipped to artists all over the globe to be painted, adorned or even carved before being returned. The show is named Carbon in reference to the molecular formula of diamonds, and was inspired by the idea of the uniqueness of diamonds despite being compromised of only a single element.
