About the Work

In Line of Sight, the artist has created a gentle atmospheric environment for the audience to navigate. The project is situated in the contemporary genre of walking simulators which trade reward systems and fast-paced gameplay for contemplative immersion. Combining naturalism with neon shapes and geometric patterns, Taylor McArthur’s project is an immersive personal reflection on her identity, memory, and ties to the land.
