Soon, we’ll be visiting the Hilliard Art Museum at the University of Louisiana Lafayette again. We were last there in June 2023 for the Luciana Abait exhibit:
Video installation
Wheel
This survey show featuring the work of Luciana Abait offers the opportunity to experience the artist’s striking work across media in painting, photography, sculpture, video installation, and augmented reality. Comprising 20 pieces from 2017 to the present, the exhibition “Luciana Abait On the Verge” conjures imaginary worlds that portend global climate catastrophe and show signs of humankind’s intrusion on nature.
The Maps that Failed Us – made up of maps that Abait digitally collaged together before printing on large strips of paper. Behind the paper: cardboard, wood, and bricks. This installation, at 18′ high and 35′ wide has been the largest.
