it’s a small world

idiom—used to show surprise when one meets someone one knows at an unexpected place or finds out that one shares a friend, acquaintance, etc., with another person (Merriam Webster Dictionary)

And what about when one shares a feeling, or an idea, an object, or an image; how universal and accessible so much can be in this world, especially in the current age of technology. People are so easily connected to one another, even while living thousands of miles apart. This show is about all of that and more.

To demonstrate the theme, “it’s a small world”, curator Chasity Porter, and 11 other artists from Texas and New York were tasked with creating a small work on 8 x 10” portrait oriented paper, while incorporating at least 3 of 5 preselected elements, hand-picked by Chasity’s 12 year old daughter.
