Update #1: Quote from Marc Schiller- Wooster Collective
"Working in abandoned buildings is something that's very close to our heart, and was a big motivation behind our 11 Spring exhibition. We're supporters of the New Mystics show and hope you will be one too".- Marc Schiller (Wooster Collective)

Project By
Has not connected their Facebook account.
No Touching Ground (NTG) is a street and installation artist. HIs life sized graphics of animals transported from the wilds of Alaska to the urban maze of Seattle and other national and international cities are haunting reminders of our distance from nature. The pure, imagistic quality of NTG's work exists outside the traditional graffiti paradigm and focus on producing moments of pure transcendence.
NKO is a street and installation artist, curator, and co-founder of the Free Sheep Foundation. His artistic practice involves meditations on collective memory and urbanism, often manifest as memorials for dying buildings, or artistic interventions in unconventional spaces.
Dan Hawkins has spent the better part of 20 years exploring and photographing marginal spaces locally, nationally, and internationally. His practice as an urban explorer has led him to create haunting images of urban decay. His work comments on the life and death of cities, reflecting on the stories that these decaying buildings hold silently within them. Dan has published a book, "This Empty City", of his photographs from Detroit.
