Spectacular Subdivision
Join the Uppur Bunk in Wonder Valley to see Spectacular Subdivision.
Uppur Bunk member Patrick Melroy has been curated into the project by Monte Vista Project’s Jay Lizo. So if you find yourself in need of some desert time come see the work on April 4, 5, & 6.
High Desert Test Sites and Monte Vista Projects present Spectacular Subdivision, a group project curated by Jay Lizo. This three-day exhibition invites artists to reflect on questions of housing and real estate in the aftermath of the 2008 housing market crisis. What does housing mean to artists in relation to their practice? How has the mortgage meltdown affected artists? How have forms of domesticity and shelter shaped artists’ practices?

Onesie Document
The Uppur Bunk produced a Onesie on Thursday, August 8th, 2013. We had eight artists working for one hour within a one square block radius. The projects were dynamic and astute. We captured some of the event with an Olympus 35 mm supplied by bunk regular Nick Cook. Any other documentation or questions or notes or warm thoughts can be emailed to uppurbunk@gmail.com
Presenting the Onesie
Named by collaborator Nick Cook, the Onesie is a one night art making event. Bring your gear, come make art with us. We will fan out, and create art in the world. We will gather after an hour and take a walking tour and create a map.
The theme is lonely crowd. Draw, take photos, make movements, or just come to see the others do it. We will be hoping to see you.
