Somewhere
Somewhere is a multi-disciplinary UK-based creative organisation founded in 2001 by artist / film-makers Karen Guthrie and Nina Pope to produce and support projects with a concern for under-represented subjects, new audiences and innovative uses of media and technologies. After studying together at Edinburgh College of Art, Pope & Guthrie completed MA's in London and began collaborating as artists in 1995, with their installation "Somewhere Over the TV" at the Collective Gallery in Edinburgh, followed by their live online travelogue "A Hypertext Journal" in March 1996, which was one of the earliest blogs. One of the UK's earliest artists' websites, www.somewhere.org.uk has been online since 1996. Somewhere has long-term collaborators including composer Tim Olden and technologist Dorian Moore. In 2008 Karen Guthrie & Nina Pope won the first ever Northern Art Prize Northern Art Prize.
