Related Tactics is honored to be part of the Fight and Flight, an exhibition featuring 23 local artists/collaboratives at the Museum of Craft & Design examining the Bay Area arts ecosystem. From the curatorial statement by Jacqueline Francis & Ariel Zaccheo:

“[The artists’] works reveal a narrative of the struggle of living and working in an untenable city–from the joy of finding chosen communities and families, to the loss of affordable housing and studio space.

Recent narratives have placed San Francisco and its surrounding urban areas “in the shadow” of larger art metropolises like Los Angeles or New York. The Bay Area finds itself in the penumbral margins of the art world conversation. So too is craft often marginalized or footnoted in the canon of art history. To survive and thrive in the margins is a radical act that occasionally requires the will to fight.”

The exhibition runs from April 15-September 10, 2023.
