![]() But if you don’t, it’s still beautiful, inspiring and leaves a really powerful impression on you.” ![]() Our North Star is always ‘interesting.’ Is this something that’s going to inspire and captivate people? That’s where we start and then people who want to probe deeper into it, there’s something there for them to find. “We are trying to create this experiential floor, basically, a sort of quality and depth of experience that everybody gets, no matter how deep they go into the narrative. “There are all these different characters that live in the desert, and you can learn their backstory of colonialism and environmental stewardship,” he says. Look for clues as to what is going on within the exhibits, installation-filled rooms and terrains, or choose your own adventure - anything goes. Guests can follow the storylines of DramCorp, the corporate giant behind Omega Mart, which has moved into this parallel dimension, taking over parts of the desert, as well as those of three sisters that lead a resistance to this infiltration. The Omega Mart grocery store has found a way to harness The Source and put it into their products, and they sell them to America, Brinkerhoff explains. The storyline of the new art experience centers on a mythical energy, called The Source. Video content - the length of three feature films - is embedded throughout. Spectators are led through a transformative narrative guided by interactive visual, sound, film and digital content all layered into multi-dimensional art. “When we come into a city, we feel like we have to really work hard to connect with that local community of artists.” But then the other half is local Las Vegas artists and artists from all over the world, all curated into this exhibition,” says Brinkerhoff. “We have a core team that we work with on every project. Via various “portals” within this maximalist and psychedelic grocery store - such as a refrigerated beverage case and a camping display - spectators enter what the creators call a parallel dimension with four vast spaces and 60 additional unique environments. And that’s where all these different artists from around the world are featured.” ![]() “Omega Mart, is the name of the room that kicks off the exhibit and it’s also the name of the whole exhibition, but there is more stuff outside of this room,” Brinkerhoff says. The 52,000-square-foot space - more than double the size of the Santa Fe location - took three and a half years to create. Omega Mart, which bills itself as “America’s Most Exceptional Grocery Store,” is stocked with hundreds of custom-made surrealist products - all for sale - such as “Lil Meow” Gruel for Cats in Pigeon Mousse flavor, Mammoth Chunks, Organic Moth Milk and Camel’s Dream of Mushroom Soup. “Creating our work collaboratively gave us leverage to make these things that were way bigger and more exciting than anything we could do by ourselves,” says Brinkerhoff. Meow Wolf is a multidisciplinary group of artists and creatives - writers, painters, sculptors, actors, lighting designers, musicians, and more - whose first permanent exhibition, the House of Eternal Return, inside a former bowling alley owned by Martin, opened in 2016 in Santa Fe and has attracted more than 2 million visitors.
