Artist Talk: Susan Robb and Her “Wild Times” @ Tacoma Art Museum | Tacoma | Washington | United States

Susan Robb discusses her Wild Times Project, with work on view in TAM’s Northwest in the West exhibition. Wild Times merged a 2,650-mile hike along the Pacific Crest Trail with new media and social engagement as an invitation to explore wildness as a geographic ideal and a state of mind. Robb used the trail as a nomadic studio and her experiences as inspiration and medium; she created digital works?photos, videos, and 3D files?and periodically sent them to a series of West Coast museums and art centers, where they were printed, projected, and installed, evolving into cumulative exhibitions. Join us at TAM to hear about the art and experiences of her PCT journey.
