nowhere arts collective, from "Out of Place"

Local group the nowhere arts collective is exhibiting Out of Place, work created during their residency at the Center for Land Use Interpretation in Utah in the summer of 2008. The project "explores the fact and folklore of the American West." Made up of Matt McCalmont, Brennan Conaway and Charissa Niles, the nowhere team says: "We observed the deserted places and abandoned things that were left behind, revealing some of the hidden aspects and forgotten stories of the American West. Our experiences in the desert compelled us to create works that we could not produce anywhere else." The show will be up at Disjecta through March 28.

Opening reception • 6-10pm • February 28
