North of Nowhere took place during the last two weeks of September. It was an expo of alternative art, music, and film, many of which explored themes of human rights.
NoN is presented by the Edmonton Small Press Association. Here is a look at some of the art installations, and one film screening. The art installations include:
- Stupid Protests (APIRG, U of A campus): Photoshop-remixed versions of protest photos from various rallies and marches.
- Street Art Workers Poster Project: Land & Globalization Series (outside Naked Cybercafe): a look at how corporate globalization has affected our world, how it has impacted the land, and how people are fighting back.
- JustSeeds (Naked Cybercafe): a decentralized community of artists who have banded together to collaborate with and support each other and social movements.
- Ingrid Rice (Outdoors, North Side, Jasper Ave. at 108 St.): the only western-based national female editorial cartoonist.
The film screening was from the Day of Darfur.
