Nancy Baker Cahill

ARTLAWS

Nancy Baker Cahill is an award-winning interdisciplinary artist whose hybrid practice focuses on systemic power, consciousness, and the human body. As a new media artist, Cahill creates immersive and interactive experiences, video installations, and conceptual blockchain projects rooted in the practice of drawing. Her monumental augmented reality artworks extend and subvert the lineage of land art, often confronting the climate crisis, social issues, and civics. Nancy’s work calls for a more equitable future for all, as realized early on in her career with her collaborative art series “Exit Wounds” in conjunction with the non profit Homeboy Industries led by Father Greg Boyle. https://homeboyindustries.org/

Cahill is Founder and Artistic Director of 4th Wall, a free AR public art platform exploring site interventions, resistance, and inclusive creative expression. Her geolocated AR installations have been exhibited globally and have earned her profiles in the New York Times, Frieze Magazine, and The Art Newspaper, and she was also included in ARTnews’ list of 2021 'Deciders'.

Cahill's work has been exhibited internationally at museums and galleries, and her solo exhibition ‘Slipstream: Table of Contents’ was recently acquired by LACMA. In 2021, she was awarded the Williams College Bicentennial Medal of Honor and received the City of Los Angeles’ Master Artist Fellowship. She is a 2022 LACMA Art and Tech Grant recipient and this year, she’ll have her first solo mid-career retrospective at the Georgia Museum of Art.
