About: Founded in October of 2011 by artist Sabina Ott and author John Paulett, Terrain Exhibitions and The Terrain Biennial repurposes private spaces like front yards, balconies, porches and windows, turning them into public art spaces in order to foster dialogue between neighbors and provide opportunities for artists and viewers alike to experience new perspectives.
