PHILADELPHIA- Tiger Strikes Asteroid is pleased to announce the opening of our June exhibition, Intramural: Curated by Rachael Gorchov and Caroline Santa.
 
The idea for this show was sparked during a visit between the studios of it’s co-curators, TSA member Caroline Santa and Rachael Gorchov as they discussed the “messy edges” of their studios.

“In the gallery space, we usually see a resolved package. As artists, we want to present a streamlined idea. This clarity requires hours of fooling around with books, TV, the internet, or little projects. This show highlights work that provides a window into this process. The solitary Intramural activities artists participate in, investing time, energy, and materials into an idea that might not become
anything more...These intramural works can be viewed as research, play, blurry glimpses into masterworks or harbingers of new creative directions.” The exhibition features work by Frank Bramblett, Natalie Campbell & Heidi Neilson, Keith Crowley, Angela Dufresne, Julian Kreimer, MP Landis, Kele McComsey, Jackie Shatz and John Morton, and Christopher Ulivo.
