Oxide Collective is an art collective that curates gallery shows in thoughtfully designed spaces and produces tailored events that bring art and community together. Composed of Bay Area female artists across painting, ceramics, and sculpture, Oxide Collective is rooted in a shared bond—one that empowers, elevates, and supports each artist’s individual practice. Anchored with an annual pop-up gallery art show, the team remains committed to creating unique experiences to showcase local art and engage in the neighborhoods they inhabit. 

Originated 2021 by abstract painter, Jaime Lovejoy, and ceramicist, Erin Hupp, the pop-up gallery (now named OXIDE) was initially born out of covid. Needing a place to show during ArtSpan Open Studios and dismayed by the several closed up retail shops along the strip of 24th Street, Lovejoy set out to see if she could make the pop-up work. She invited Hupp and the two artists embarked on creating the unique model and creating a deeper connection between artist and visitors. Staffing the gallery themselves, they were able to speak with visitors first hand about their process and the story behind each piece. The neighborhood response was met with excitement, an otherwise empty retail filled, something new and unique to visit. 

For the 2026 show, the team is thrilled to partner with TINT Gallery and pop-up in the space between their regular programming. The partnership promotes championing women artists and expanding opportunities for artists to show their work. The event is growing but will remain short lived - returning Oct 16-25th, at 149 Gough Street (TINT Gallery) in San Francisco.

“Year- over-year, the response from the community and neighbors has been overwhelmingly positive. To bring these shows into neighborhoods and communities and see the reaction is so special.”
