Sponsor WAAM and receive a limited edition inaugural Benefit Print!

​

Our inaugural limited edition print series by artist Cara Despain explores the existential threat of nuclear weapons through her personal proximity to stockpile development and atomic testing. Using mirrored declassified archival footage of the atomic tests at the Nevada Test Site--which rained radiation on Downwinders in southwestern Utah including the artist's own family-- she created tinted, symmetric stills that have a romantic, film-like quality but that have a much darker, insidious reality that belies the apparent charm. 

By purchasing one of these exclusive prints, you'll be supporting both the artist and WAAM’s vital programming. Don’t miss your chance to own a powerful piece of art that speaks to history, memory, and the urgent need for reflection. Proceeds will directly benefit our efforts to uplift local artists and expand our impact in South Florida’s cultural landscape.
