NAVIGATION’s mission is to create space for exploration and push the boundaries of thinking and making. Our goal is to incite dialogue and conversation around how we perceive the world. To invite people to examine their own reality. 

Our happenings are like interruptions.

​

The theme comes from something real being navigated. A lived question.

This year’s theme is glitch. 

​

Glitch is a spike or change in voltage in an electrical current when the circuit suddenly has a new load on it. Can the ‘glitch’ represent a spike or slip in identity, perception, or rejection of a system?

​

This year, artists have been asked to make work that examines a time when they glitched. 

​

Come spend a day in nature observing art installations and performances. You will encounter a photograph laid in a field of grass, listen to the strings of a koto instrument under a pine tree, and see a woman suspended in a pink box.
