Cara Despain was born and raised in Salt Lake City, and the experience of growing up in the West informs much of her work. Through video, sculpture, photography, and installation she critiques a range of issues pertinent to the region that are also internationally relevant. Atmospheric nuclear weapons testing polluted vast areas of this region and inflicted disease and death on many of the region’s residents. Despain has long had a deep concern about lingering effects of this exposure for the people downwind. Her work is intended to remind us that the nuclear threat is still present.
The 2023 Florida Prize in Contemporary Art is on view at the Orlando Museum of Art until August 27, 2023.
