Sinister Florida: We're intrigued, Tempus. Tell us more...

Even the name enchants: Sunistra. It’s a portmanteau of the Latin word for sinister and, of course, sunshine. So, yeah, the name for the latest exhibit at Tempus Projects is Florida’s stripper name. And although Tempus doesn’t have regular gallery hours, they’re super-flexible if you decide to go see this on a whim — just call ‘em and they’ll be right over to let you gaze upon these multi-media Florida works. Christopher Jones, Curator of Photography and New Media at the Ringling Museum of Art, served as juror.

Tempus Projects, 4636 N. Florida Ave., Seminole Heights. Through July 6. 813-340-9056. Learn more here.
