Collaborative art projects are the order of the day in Atlanta. You can’t swing a brush in this town without hearing someone’s emphatic description of the “awesome” new project, art show, or performance they’re cooking up with other local creatives. And, really, why shouldn’t it be like that? Funding is hard to come by,...

Photographer and curator Jason Travis uses the words “cornucopia” and “eclectic” to describe Infinity, the group exhibit currently on view at MINT Gallery.
