Maegan Hill-Carroll, who holds an MFA from the University of California Los Angeles, explores tensions between landscape and experience. Ironically, this desert landscape isn’t landscape-oriented at all, but a sliver of the landscape in portrait orientation. Much of her past work looks to her experience, this specifically to the period of her time volunteering in Otse, Botswana around 2000, but then, this landscape was actually shot in a similar desert east of Los Angeles. Therefore, the artist is exploring how to deal with displaced, trace memories pictorially. She applies the affect of the colour pink to bring together a fragmented narrative.
