About the installation
The two windows of WUG will feature Barbara Robertson’s animated videos, “ Plywood Graffiti” and “Flip.”
Each video is a three minute loop, composed of drawings, collages and photographs created by the artist. They were inspired by her response to living in a rapidly changing urban environment and her hopes for a more humane space to nurture our community.
