RESCHEDULED - Visiting Artist Lecture - Alice Pixley Young

In my multimedia installations, I use video and light projected through glass objects and kinetic sculptures to create immersive, moving shadow-drawings. The disruption of climate change, man-made disasters, and the evolution of technology on our (and as our) landscape has been the driving force of my creative research for several years. Citing art historical roots from the Hudson River School to Land Arts, I examine the interrelationship of landscape, environment, and technology. The 'shadow drawings' distort and amplify scale and space and distill a sense of the transient. These juxtapositions raise questions of history, labor and technology as well as the environment in which they exist.
