Artist Teresa Baker’s mixed media work is rooted in reflections of memory and movement. Her upcoming exhibition at the American Academy of Arts and Letters, titled Twenty Minutes to Sunset, explores the transitional phases of daylight and how natural environments can shape and shift art. Among the work included in the exhibition is a painting Baker started in her backyard in Los Angeles that was exposed to the elements of the 2025 West Coast wildfires and another piece that was created “in dialogue with changing daylight” and incorporates “layered astroturf topography evoking the Midwest’s undulating terrain.” As part of the exhibit’s official opening, Arts and Letters will host an Uptown celebration on April 13 featuring a dynamic discussion with Baker about her creative process and current works.
