Art is where art is
Sometimes the art you see at the art gallery isn’t where you thought you’d find it. I went to see the fantastic show by James Johnson and Erika Pochybova at the Louise Hopkins Underwood Center for the Arts.

- A cotton gin in the middle of a town isn’t especially normal.
- No boat trailers? How’d they get here?
- Why?
And there’s at least one thing the people in the house across the street can’t explain.
- Why is that crazy woman over there taking pictures of the boats?
