Description

Landscapes in Pain was a tour and visit with artists Kristen Neville Taylor and Roxane Permar at Wheaton Arts and Cultural Center (Millville, NJ) for the Eco Social programme.

The event started with a tour of the solo exhibition by Kristen Neville Taylor “Come Into View” (on view from Sept 27 – Nov 1, 2025). Come into View was a multimedia installation that incorporateed materials and stories collected from field visits to the Delaware Bay in Southern New Jersey to explore how we understand time, memory, and resilience in a changing climate. Through a video portrait, glass breath forms, and text, the exhibition explored how horseshoe crabs model collectivity and alternative ways of being in time. Influenced by Rob Nixon’s concept of slow violence, the work also reflected on the quiet, accumulative impacts of environmental harm—those that unfold invisibly across generations, perpetuated by dominant narratives that shape what we choose to see, remember, and value.

After the tour Roxane Permar, artist visiting from the Shetland Islands in Scotland, gave a presenttion about Landscape in Pain which is an ongoing project that forms the heart of a multi-layered visual and social response to construction of the industrial scale Viking Energy Wind Farm in Shetland, whose landscape has been in a constant state of injury since 2020. It is a collection of digital drawings and films which Permar has been making since March 2021 in response to the on-going construction of one of the largest onshore wind farms in Europe, Viking Energy Wind Farm, on Shetland’s Mainland, including the ongoing construction of related infrastructure and new wind farm developments.
