Artist Talk: Lillian Bayley Hoover

In-person at the Museum — 3550 Wilson Blvd., Arlington, VA 22201

Saturday / March 16 / 4-5pm

Free. No registration required.

Join artist Lillian Bayley Hoover for an in-person conversation about her solo exhibition Hitched to Everything Else, currently on view at MoCA Arlington.

In Hitched to Everything Else, Lillian Bayley Hoover depicts spaces where human infrastructure interrupts or collides with the natural environment. The artist highlights and challenges humans’ conflicted relationship to nature, or, as she explains it, all the ways “we are of nature but proceed as if we are apart from it.” Hoover’s complex landscapes invite viewers to confront this untenable approach, pointing to the threat it poses both to our own existence and to the natural world we treat as if it is distinct from human life.
