In "TINY: attention, exploded" at the Carrack Modern Art Gallery in downtown Durham, North Carolina, artists consider the miniature, very small, and microscopic. Equal parts childhood fascination and mania, the exhibition is about looking closely at things and changing one's scale so the world opens up or closes in.

TINY contains about 90 works by about 50 area artists. It also includes three egg carton "museums" curated by first-thru-third-graders at Watts Montessori Magnet School in Durham; a workstation at which visitors can arrange mouse bones on colored paper and photograph it for online display; a microscope and prepared slides to pique your inner scientist; a clothesline of tiny books that visitors can write or draw in and leave for others; and site-specific installations on windowsills and in corners.

Artists include Marissa Bergmann, Andy Berner, Teddy Devereux, Eric Raddatz, Amanda Barr, Carol Kroll, Jan Dickey, MacKenzie Peck, Amy White, Courtney Satterfield, Jessica Berkowitz, María DeGuzmán and Carisa Showden, Martha Thorn, Mary Storms, Lisa Hosokawa Garber, Warren Hicks, Brenda van Orssouw, Alexandria Stewart, JP Trostle, River Takada-Capel, Libby Lynn, Parasol B, Lisa Williams, sarah goetz, Chuck Pell, Mark Iwinski, Chance Murray, Revere La Noue, Gracelee Lawrence, Torry Bend, Cici Stevens, Bonnie Melton, Brett Baker, Michael Itkoff, Lisa McCarty, MJ Sharp, Tori Ralston, Brent Cunningham, Molly Renda, elin o'Hara slavick, Mario Marzan, Marsha Gordon, Louis Cherry, Heather Gordon, Laura Ginn, Tom Spleth, Stephanie Liner, Gail Goers, and Chris Vitiello. TINY is curated by Chris Vitiello.
