The Diorama Show by Ami Kealoha

Sometimes it's best to think inside the box. That's the case (literally) with the recently opened show in San Francisco's Mission 17 gallery. For the exhibit a group of artists were tasked with creating artwork within the restricted form of the grade school standby. Confined within a space roughly the size of a shoebox, results range from otherwordly such as Kristina Lewis' alien, sea urchin-like orbs to sleek and mysterious like the view through Taro Hattori's peephole as pictured here. Through July 16th.
