This conversation, moderated by Michael Holloman, Associate Professor with the Department of Art at WSU, offers unique insights. Special guests include Nakia Williamson-Cloud, Cultural Resources Program Director of the Nimíipuu tribe.
On display is a collection of previous public works created by AREA C Projects, as well as concept imagery for their upcoming installation for the WSU Plant Sciences Building.
AREA C Projects is a Providence, Rhode Island-based public art practice consisting of Erik Carlson (lead artist) and Erica Carpenter. Drawing on backgrounds in multimedia installation, architecture, audio composition, performance and experimental technique, we strive to create public artworks that reveal unexpected points of commonality in our shared surroundings, inviting deeper engagement on individual and local levels.
