Nancy Baker Cahill: Visiting Artist Lecture
Monday, October 21st at 4 PM
Visual Arts Complex Auditorium, 1B20
Nancy Baker Cahill is an interdisciplinary artist and expanded filmmaker whose hybrid practice focuses on systemic power, consciousness, and the human body through ecological thinking. She creates research-based immersive experiences, video installations, and conceptual blockchain projects rooted in the history of drawing. Her monumental augmented reality (AR) artworks extend and subvert the lineage of land art, often highlighting civics and a desire for more equitable futures. She is the Founder and Artistic Director of 4th Wall, a free, AR public art platform exploring site interventions, resistance, and inclusive creative expression.
Her globally-exhibited geolocated AR installations have earned her profiles in the New York Times, Frieze, and The Art Newspaper, among other publications. In 2023, the Georgia Museum of Art exhibited her first solo mid-career survey, which will travel through 2025. The Whitney Museum of American Art commissioned and acquired CENTO, the museum’s first participatory AR project co-built by a global audience, on view through 2024.
