Robert Boyd is an interdisciplinary artist working in the areas of video, installation, photography and sculpture. “Conspiracy Theory” addresses issues of social paranoia and civil distrust through topics of September 11, Area 51, human invention of the HIV/AIDS virus, and the bizarre “reptilian agenda” that reveals reptilians as rulers of humanity. The exhibition was on view in the Feldman Gallery August 31 – October 24, 2009 and coincides with Portland Institute for Contemporary Art’s Time-Based Art Festival (TBA:09). Curated by Kristan Kennedy, Visual Art Program Director, PICA.
