Subliminal Projects is pleased to present, Out of Touch, a year-long fundraising online group exhibition uniting artists, nonprofits, and patrons by contributing aid to the ongoing health crisis and social revolution. The exhibition highlights artists from around the world whose work involves themes of human interaction and connection, drawing attention to the universal existential re-evaluation of humanity in the wake of an uncertain future.

As an artist and activist-run space, Subliminal Projects recognizes that the fight against racism and the pandemic are not just trending topics consuming our news and social feeds. They require dedication and long-term support to manifest real change. For the duration of the exhibition, 30% of the proceeds from art sales will besplit between Color of Change, an organization dedicated to racial justice, and Heart to Heart International, providing medical aid and supplies worldwide. Additionally, Subliminal will invite new artists to participate every quarter, bringing in evolving perspectives, as we move forward to a better future collectively

ABOUT SUBLIMINAL PROJECTS:

Subliminal Projects is a multi-functional project space and gallery established by Shepard Fairey and Blaize Blouin in 1995 as a way to introduce skateboard culture and design to the art world. The concept grew and found roots later in Los Angeles, at a time when many artists found themselves shut out by the “art scene.” Subliminal Projects emerged as a gallery that championed emerging and marginalized artists, built out of cultural importance to serve as a center for the community to openly express and spark dialogue about art, music and activism. Now located in the historic neighborhood of Echo Park, Subliminal Projects continues to offer a platform for artistic exploration and innovation.
