WHERE ART INSPIRES CONNECTION
EVENTS
OPENING RECEPTION "Unforgotten”
Join us for the opening “Unforgotten,” featuring works by Juliette Frescaline and Cecilia Lusven!
Both artists transform the discarded into something celebrated. Frescaline focuses on the often-overlooked material of iron wire in her metal sculptures. She combines this with the subject matter of wild weeds and animal skins to celebrate the ordinary beauty in the natural world. Similarly, Lusven uses discarded materials such as inner tubes and scraps of leather to reveal the inherent beauty and value in them, while also challenging the trivialization of the textile practice brought on by industrialization. Lusven thus elevates the art of textile from the forgotten to the revered.

Opening Reception: Retrospective II "In a New Light"
Join us for the opening of our 2nd annual retrospective “In a New Light” featuring works by:
MARIE BARTHES
LIS COSTA
BETSY KENYON
DASHA PEARS
VERO REATO
BLANCA ESTELLA RODRIGUEZ
MAGALY SANCHEZ
OPENING RECEPTION “DUAL NATURES” and 2nd YEAR ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION!
Join us for the opening of Dual Natures, TINT’s fall show and our 2nd Year Anniversary Celebration!
Sculptor Marie Barthès, based in Paris, France, and painter Magaly Sánchez, from Lima, Peru, express the dualities they find in nature through their respective media. Order and disorder, softness and roughness, the manmade and the natural. All stems from the smallest cells. Starting from the same themes and observations, Barthès’ and Sánchez’s works diverge from there, ultimately expressing their individual natures as artists, in TINT’s fall exhibition “Dual Natures.”
Opening Reception: “Perception Illuminated”
Join us for the opening of “Perception Illuminated,” featuring works by Betsy Kenyon and Blanca Estela Rodríguez. Through different media, these artists play with perception by sculpting light. In a darkroom, Kenyon records momentary gestures onto photographic paper. The heavy penumbra between areas of light and dark reads as shading, which creates an illusion of form, space, and light. Rodríguez uses colored acrylic glass to create sculptures that seem to be illuminated. Her works offer limitless shifts in perception based on light, shape, time, and proximity.
Enjoy a special tour led by the artists at 6:45pm!
ART MARKET SF
TINT Gallery is pleased to announce its participation in this year’s Art Market, SF.

Opening Reception: Dasha Pears: “Inside Out”
Join us for the opening of “Inside Out,” Dasha Pears’ first solo exhibition at TINT Gallery!
Pears will be in town all the way from Finland and giving an artist walkthrough during opening night at 5:45pm. This is not to be missed!
Dasha Pears is an award-winning artist based in Helsinki, Finland. Her aesthetically clean works focus on self- discovery and inner worlds. Pears uses the instruments of surrealism, minimalism, color, photography, and digital manipulation to tell surprising visual stories with a twist.
OPENING RECEPTION “SCULPTED”
Join us for the opening of “Sculpted” featuring work by Lis Costa and Vero Reato.
Did you think that scalpels were just for doctors and concrete just for construction? Think again! Lis Costa and Vero Reato, the artists in TINT’s latest exhibition “Sculpted,” use tools and materials traditionally used for other practices, bringing the unexpected to fine art.
For Costa and Reato there are infinite possibilities stemming from one single element: paper for Costa, concrete for Reato. Both artists find endless ways to animate these materials, constantly discovering ways for their art to evolve.
OPENING RECEPTION “Retrospective: In a New Light”
TINT is starting off 2023 taking a look at artwork from our artists In a New Light. This Retrospective will give you a chance to see highlights from shows you have missed, to see works from different exhibitions interacting, to see how curation can change the conversation between works. Sometimes, it’s not a change that is needed, simply a new vantage point.
HOLIDAY PARTY
It’s that time of year. It may be cold outside, but TINT is full of warm cheer. Come celebrate with us. Bubbly, wine, and more! It’s a great chance to get some last minute gifts; we’ve got lots of art, design, and architecture books. Thanks to everyone who has supported us in our first year! We look forward to many more art-filled years to come.
Wine generously provided by Vintage Wine Estates.
Artist Tour
Artists Jessie Laura and Ning Ma will lead us in a tour of their works currently on display in “Into the Beyond.” Hear about Ma’s incredible trekking adventures that lead to such awe inspiring photographs; learn about the intent behind Laura’s minimalism; and more!
OPENING RECEPTION “INTO THE BEYOND”
Join us for the opening of Into the Beyond. TINT's fall show explores the theme of "Into the Beyond" from the perspective of three women artists from three different countries.
Russian born, Finland-based Dasha Pears brings life to the subconscious. Her unique form of storytelling combines design, staging, and photography to create images that are whimsical yet simultaneously meticulous.
Peruvian-born, now SF-based, Jessie Laura explores what happens when we move beyond contemporary culture’s onslaught of visual imagery. Stripped from color and representational imagery, Laura’s work allows volume, texture, and light to become the focus.
Chinese-born, Bay Area resident, Ning Ma, captures what it's like to go beyond the bounds of humanity's presence in her landscape photography. From the highest peaks to the lowest valleys, Ma's journey has taken her around the globe to places where few humans have gone.
MEDITATION CLASSES
We’re partnering with WITHIN Meditation for Sunday Meditations at TINT Gallery — a soul-nourishing event that includes guided meditation, lively discussion, and time to connect. Dip your toes into mindfulness for the first time or deepen your practice with us.
ARTIST TOUR
Hear from artists Catherine Mackey, Sarah Newton, and Deborah Sibony in person at TINT Gallery. This isn’t a stuffy, sit down, panel discussion; it’s a lively walk-through tour of TINT’s current exhibition Grounded, led by the artists themselves!
You will get a behind the scenes look at the intricately different processes the artists practice. What do dilapidated barns, incomplete trails, and the demolished SF Bay Bridge have in common? Come find out on Sunday, September 11 at 3:00pm.
OPENING RECEPTION “GROUNDED”
TINT Gallery is pleased to announce “Grounded,” a group show featuring works by Catherine Mackey, Sarah Newton, and Deborah Sibony.
Three Bay Area women artists, working in three different media (painting, drawing, and printmaking), explore what it feels like to be grounded here. Inspired by the Bay’s transitioning landscapes, the collapse and rebuilding of industry, and the areas between the water and developed land, these artists capture a snapshot of the imprint and disappearance of the urban on nature. By finding the beauty in architectural decrepitude, destruction, construction, and incompleteness, Mackey, Newton, and Sibony find a way to stay grounded in the Bay Area during these uncertain times.
ARTIST TALK
LAY BARE, the current exhibition at TINT Gallery, with work by Elana Bober and Iris Rountree is on view until June 3.
Come hear from the artists themselves about their processes, inspiration, and how they found their unique voices. Rountree hand-makes paper from plants she collects along the Russian River, compelled to capture the colors and textures of the landscape affected by the drought, to acknowledge the results of climate change.
Bober similarly infuses her work with the natural world, inspired by her time along the Northern California coast. When the tide is low, a hidden world is revealed, a magical world that sparks Bober’s imagination.
SUMIWARE VASE BUILDING WORKSHOP
Join Sumiware Ceramics on Saturday, May 14th from 2-4pm for a handbuilding vase workshop at TINT Gallery. For this handbuilding workshop we will be gaining inspiration from the current exhibit on view, Lay Bare, to create a beautifully textured cylinder vase.

AN EVENING WITH THE ARTISTS
Ever wonder how artists get their inspiration? Curious about the difference between a mezzotint and spit bite etching? Can you really make art with beeswax and dirt? Find out the answers to these questions and more at our next event. We'll have a panel discussion with the artists, followed by a more informal Q&A.
OPENING EVENT
Come celebrate opening night of the first ever show at TINT Gallery! We are thrilled to present our first group of local women artists who innovate across media: Geneviève L’Heureux, Lisa Ostapinski, Lela Shields, and Diane Wang.
From aquatint and mezzotint, to gouache, encaustic, beeswax, gold leaf, oil paint and acrylic, to canvas, wood, and paper, the techniques and materials these artists employ reveal a creativity beyond the traditional. There’s a tangible connection with the natural world both in the inspiration for the works and the materials used in their creation. The results are completely distinct, with works that evoke the emotional, the spiritual, and sensorial. Come discover what makes these artists so exceptional.
Must be vaccinated and wear a mask to attend.
