Manicure/Pedicure: A Collaboration with rareCo
Exhibition Dates: June 28th - July 20th

Opening Reception: Friday, June 28th • 5:30pm - 10:00pm

746 S 4th Street • Philadelphia, PA 19147

As part of rareCo's gallery initiative, we will be bringing found objects and home decor into Paradigm for a month-long show titled “manicure/pedicure”. By creating a lived-in ambiance, we hope to deepen the narrative that Hyland Mather has begun with the current Paradigm show, “Direction Instruction”, much the same way that the Basquiat print on your wall is informed by the dirty dishes in your sink, the broken wine glass on the floor, the dusty ceiling light that your landlord won't replace.

Much of the work is for sale, though our principle aim is to encourage active participation in home decor, as it relates to our instinct to construct identity through collecting.

Join us for the opening event on Friday, June 28th from 5:30-10 PM.

746 S. 4th Street • Philadelphia, PA 19147

Featuring floral by Walter Pine and a playlist by Anaïs Cooper-Hackman

Special thanks to Thunderbird Salvage, Philly AIDS Thrift, N.R.S Boutique, Big Mike, Beaux Arts Vintage, and Search+Rescue Drygoods for contributing items for this exhibit.
