 Cover Photo:  "Detail from Move It On Over (2011), part of the upcoming
 Western exhibition at the Kamloops Art Gallery. DRIL is a collective of
 artists based in Vancouver. They have a shared interest in developing
 projects that uncover histories responsible for influencing contemporary
 notions of signs and place. The installation Move It On Over is a film-like
 set containing an interior space with domestic furniture and a television
 playing a video of edited Hollywood Western film clips, featuring the
 tumbleweed as the main protagonist. Rooms filled with tumbleweed act as
 an unconventional organic corridor on either side of this domestic space to
 create a transitional zone that plays with and challenges our preconceived
 notions of the tumbleweed in film and nature."
