About this exhibition:
Pay attention to the small, mundane, fleeting, and overlooked details in life, as they are the building blocks of our conscious and subconscious existence. It could mean a flash of joy and/or pain, fragments of memories, encounters, lessons learned, moments of inspiration, or sudden understanding. In a more literal sense, it could mean all the tiny physical things that make up our universe; infinitesimal quarks and atoms that make up the largest objects, the cells that compose all life on our planet, the bricks in a building, or the dust motes that cause our biggest sneezes.
You’ll, of course, see tiny paintings and sculptures, but also huge renderings of small things or ideas, short poems and performances, and conceptual pieces that do not focus on physical size. Just as we’d hoped we’d find, It’s the Little Things means a lot to a large number of people.
This show is in partnership with the Toy and Miniature Museum of Kansas City.
