There is a story. A story worth telling. And it starts with a little boy and his father. They move to a new home one Sunday. It was an ordinary Sunday, in an ordinary house. His room was not very clean, and so he spent the whole day arranging it just how he liked. At night he heard a strange scratching noise form inside his closet.
The boy naturally tries to ignore it. But gets louder, and louder, until a gruff voice sounds from behind the door
"Woah what's that?!"
The boy was terrified and stumbled for the stick he keeps from just a moment like this. He slowly opened the closet door, ready for whatever horror lay inside, but there was nothing - a simple, fairly empty closet.
Until something tapped him on the shoulder, and he turned to find a monster! It was a very small monster, about 3 feet tall, with horns, purple fur and big yellow eyes.
The boy fell and scrambled until the side of the closet was at his back.
The monster only said, "Hurry up" and grabbed the boy by the hand, to drag him through the small door that appeared at the closets very end.
They came out through a wishing well, in a strange new world.
This places has had many names.
And many children to name it.
But this boy called it Upside Down Land.

The Potentialist Workshop is a multidisciplinary collaborative arts collective in Reno, Nevada. Each facet of the collective aims to explore and question that which shapes contemporary culture, art, and the ideas behind them. Our Workshop includes artist’s studios, recording studios, a black-box theater, and a contemporary gallery. The Potentialist provides space and support for all types of artists, innovators, and collaborators.
Potentialism is the melding of boundaries between play, poem, sculpture, painting, and music. The lines that separate the arts become so blurred it becomes impossible to see where one begins and the other ends. Potentialists are interested in abolishing these lines. We believe a contemporary artist should have understanding of all forms of art. This will allow the artist to unlock their infinite potential.
