111 Minna Gallery is proud to present “Worship Thee Kindly The Dark Hand That Guides Me”, an exhibition showcasing new and recent works from Skinner. This full bore installation of sculpture, paintings and mixed media work will mark Skinner’s first major solo effort and will be available for enhanced 3-D viewing on the night of the opening reception.

Like some fantastical LSD nightmare, the art of skinner is a full bore visual assault that maintains a vicious stranglehold on one’s senses. Rivers of blood cut valleys out of crystal mountains that cradle the battleground of the war for evermore. From the ashes and dust rises one warrior, a very strange warrior, on a mission to destroy preconceptions of visual art and paradigm all the while maintaining a very very dark sense of humor.

Sacramento, CA resident Skinner has carefully crafted a balanced triad of impressive mural work, overwhelmingly intense wall to wall installations and a prolific commercial career. A product of 80’s pop culture, early skateboarding scenes, a broken home, dungeons and dragons and a lot of heavy metal, Skinner’s mind is one full of meyhem driven by a calculated chaos.

Gallery Hours: Tues-Sat, 12pm-5pm, Saturday, 1pm-5pm and viewing by appointment. 111 Minna Gallery is located at the corner of Minna and 2nd Street in downtown San Francisco. The Gallery offers a full bar and welcomes ages 21 and over.
