ABOUT TERRAIN

Terrain is a community driven environmentally centered art oasis bringing wild nature through artistic responses to the surrounding landscape and its history. At its core, Terrain provides supported opportunities for artists to create new, unique works, cultivating the expansion of creative thinking and making. The goal is to foster greater environmental awareness both in the artists themselves and our audiences. Terrain artists were prompted by the dynamic history of what lies around and beneath Building 5. This site used to be home of Guild's Lake and wetlands up to the bank of the Willamette River, and where Terrain is taking place in August 2025. 

Terrain is co-curated by Kendra Roberts, an independent artist-curator who recently co-curated the well-received Terra Incognita, a land art exhibition hosted by the Verdancy Project in 2023. Currently, she serves as the director of public engagement at Blackfish Gallery and is the president of the Portland Art Dealers Association. Clairissa Stephens is a studio artist and curator, her practice and research explores a sense of place, wonder and relationship to the natural landscape. Her work is influenced by mapping, navigation, historical research, weather patterns and extreme natural environments. Tammy Jo Wilson is an artist, curator, and co-founder of the nonprofit Art in Oregon. Wilson curates the ongoing traveling art exhibit BLACK MATTER showcasing Oregon-based black artists. Wilson also serves as Ambassador for the Portland Art Museum Black Art & Experiences Initiative and the Director of Exhibits & Programming for Bush House Museum in Salem, Oregon.
