Queen’s Nails Annex located in the Mission District of San Francisco, has built a strong reputation for dedicating its project space to presenting collaborative, site-specific and experimental works by artists. At this point in the gallery’s tenure, Queen’s Nails Annex will launch an individualized movement that will allow the gallery’s inception from one central space to expand outward into the complex sub-communities of San Francisco. This movement titled "Queen’s Nails Annex Extensions" will allow artists to use varying neighborhood locations to serve as modules for housing exhibitions akin to Queen’s Nails Annex’s original gallery location, following the traditional gallery mission objectives. Artists will have the opportunity to work outside of their normal practices and have new unexpected challenges working with unique spaces that have already formed their own identities and reputations in different ways from a traditional gallery viewing setting. Some of these locations being: coffee shops, laundromats, video stores, bookstores, etc. Queen’s Nails Annex is presenting this project as a way for its artists to think about the work they create in connection to the community in which it is being presented. Most importantly, the artists are able to reflect on viewers and their association with their artworks and their relationship to everyday life within these sub-communities.
