Hidden Agenda is a unique piece of artwork by Chris Bauder.
The Nevada Arts Council exhibit includes Hidden Agenda, a unique combination of latex painting and pillow stuffing, mesmerizing portraits including As the Land and Saving Sage, and abstract pieces using acrylic on paper in Every Molecule in My Body and burned goat hide in Star Hide.
NAC describes the artwork as pieces in this show often reference or portray landscape and place, but their stories do not reside there. The experience of landscape is only as important as our own fixed experience in space; these artists reflect on notions of rootedness, permanence, anxiety and survival in their work. The artists use hands, faces and bodies in most of the pieces in various mediums, including textile, paint, wood and resourcefulness with they have discovered.
