From the Arlington Museum of Art:
“Alicia Eggert is a multimedia artist whose practice explores the potency of poetic language through time-based installations. Utilizing vernacular media such as commercial signage and neon, Eggert facilitates public engagement while calling attention to one’s place in the world and the passage of time to elicit philosophical contemplation. This exhibition features the latest iteration of Your Magic is Real, a room-sized immersive installation that is both an exuberant celebration of the power of collaboration and a stark reminder (when it goes dark) of the consequences of division and alienation. To create the work, Eggert collaborated with James Akers, and the music was composed by Marco Buongiorno Nardelli.
Alicia Eggert (American, b. 1981) is Associate Professor of Studio Art at University of North Texas who has exhibited widely, both at major institutions and in public spaces. Her first solo museum exhibition opened at the Art Museum of Southeast Texas in April 2024, while her 2022 collaboration with Planned Parenthood, a neon sculpture titled OURs, which was temporarily installed in front of the US Supreme Court, was featured in the Summer 2023 issue of Gagosian Quarterly.”
