OCA Executive Director Venessa Castagnoli and our 2026 Artist in Residence Zachary Fabri recently joined KRCL’s RadioACTive to talk about Zachary’s residency, his exploration of Utah’s salt landscapes and extraction, and the questions at the heart of his work: What is taken? What remains?

Zachary’s residency culminates in a new exhibition and live performance opening October 2 at OCA.
