Thin Ice Collective was born in Oakland, CA from the ashes of Auto 3321 Gallery in 2006.
Auto 3321 was a founding members of the popular Oakland "Art Murmur". After helping to establish the Telegraph
corridor as a vital Bay Area arts district, it was pushed out by real estate interests in a classic example of gentrification.
In a reaction to the lack of support for both underground and cutting edge art in the bay area, gallery owner Tracy
Timmins called together a group of seven other artists she felt were at the forefront of a new wave of artmaking.
The group was dubbed Thin Ice Collective.
Thin Ice Collective operates as a think tank, responding to and collectively interacting with current political and artistic
themes across the globe. Its curent members are: Serena Cole, Uri Korn, Billy Kroft, Hilary Pecis, Catherine Ryan,
Sham Saenz, Zefrey Throwell, and Tracy Timmins.
