<\/a>Wendy Wischer\u00a0is an assistant professor at the University of Utah in the art\/art history department. She received an MFA from Florida State University and a BFA from the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Wischer creates work in a variety of media, from sculptural objects to installations, video and public works. Much of the artwork is based on blurring the separation between the intrinsic history of working with nature and the cutting edge of New Genre and New Media. \u201cWischer works with immaterial elements like light and finds elaborate ways to make them concrete. She creates large-scale installations inspired in part by the natural landscape. Harnessing the majesty of this terrain is an ambitious aim, and she achieves this without falling into clich\u00e9 or stereotype,\u201d noted Abrams.<\/p>\n
