SUMMARY:Without Mountains and Rivers Without End: Speculative Geographics 
 on an Interior Northwest
LOCATION:Sheppard Contemporary Gallery
DESCRIPTION:This weird and dynamic show of fourteen artists\, poets\, and 
 musicians takes the focus of the geo-regions of the Eastern Cascades\, No
 rtheastern Sierra Nevada\, and Western Great Basin\, and presents work fr
 om these artists as they relate to ecology and society through their own 
 layered dreams\, visions\, ideas of near futures\, and deep pasts of this
  elusive and mysterious place.\n\nIn an indirect and limited glance\, as 
 through the side-mirror on the highway\, or reflected image caught in sur
 veillance lens or mountain creek\, this exhibition wonders about the grai
 ny seams and edges between the North American geo-regions of the Eastern 
 Cascades\, Northeastern Sierra Nevada\, and Western Great Basin. With the
  hypothesis that a re-framing and blurred focus might help to see a subje
 ct anew\, these fourteen artists engage in speculative strategies as they
  relate to ecology and society through their own layered dreams\, visions
 \, ideas of near futures and deep pasts of this elusive and mysterious pl
 ace.\n\nThe focus on this particular part of the Intermountain Northwest 
 identifies a region with much in common\, yet perhaps without much unders
 tanding in the broader cultural imagination. Artists included might have 
 a unique understanding and relationship with this place\, yet might also 
 live outside these soft boundaries\, around the perimeter looking in or o
 ut\, or have work that resonates well in this place. Ranging from absurdi
 ty and humor to horror\, the paranormal\, dystopia and utopia\, work from
  four\n\nhttp://next-to-u.app/events/0813d9ba-9d1f-4616-b21a-07d562c7902e
