Kadist San Francisco: Frozen World of the Familiar Stranger

Artists: Andrea Bowers, Cao Fei, Steffani Jemison, Chris Johanson, Farideh Lashai, Rodney McMillian, Sahej Rahal, Rachel Rose, Tejal Shah, Himali Singh Soin, Kartik Sood, Ho Tzu Nyen, Maya Watanabe.

Comment by AB: As the world gets smaller, the overall state of the planet gets tenser and more urgent by the day. That's the pretext. Here's the art... you figure it out. (If anyone wants to help with names of the artists, I'd be most appreciative.)
