Tiny Boxes, Big Personalities
We stopped by a matchbox art show called General Strike at Joy Machine—70+ artists, tiny boxes, and tons of inspiration!
Last weekend, I was actually pretty active! My husband and I went out to check out Christmas markets where some friends were exhibiting—it was super festive and fun.
But one of the highlights was an exhibition called General Strike at a gallery called Joy Machine! It was all about matchboxes—more than 70 artists participated, and each one had decorated a matchbox in their own unique way.
Some were familiar faces from the Chicago art scene, and others were completely new to me. That mix made it feel really fresh and exciting!
Tiny boxes, but so much personality packed inside. I loved it.
