Event Details

We Are Who We Have Been Waiting For
Solo Exhibition 
 Opening Reception – Friday June 12, 2026

A new exhibition by San Francisco-based artist Rebeka Rodriguez Mondragón — opens June 12 and runs through July 3, 2026. The work arrives as both declaration and question: What if salvation was never coming from outside us? What if we are it? Embodying the mythological is not metaphor but a survival strategy.

Through new photography and hand-fabricated jewelry, Rodriguez Mondragón approaches the body as a charged site of memory, connection, and radical self-making. Metals conduct and transmit energy, amplify intention, and become the medium through which lineage travels.

When: Opening reception – Friday, June 12, 2026, 6-9pm
Where: 465 Collective, 465 South Van Ness, SF, CA, 94103
Gallery Hours: Saturdays 12-5pm and by appointment
Admission: Free and open to the public
