We knew when we decided to go into PICA that we needed to fill some literal, physical space in their massive warehouse, so we turned to the first real Production Manager Risk/Reward has ever had. Back in 2010, Lyndsay was the Production and Event Manager at BodyVox, and ran the entire third year of the Risk/Reward Festival to a T. In the meantime, she’s turned to making art instead of managing art. She’s a member of the AFRU Collective, where she curated 2021’s Specimens show, as well as a Resident Artist with the Zymoglyphic Museum.
She’s currently working on a series of interactive installations and performances called Once in a Lifetime that explore how each of us would like to be remembered after we die, and how our answer to that question changes as we age. Dead People’s Sheets is the first installment in that series.
Constructed out of materials sourced directly from estate sales, Dead People’s Sheets will be a striking physical and emotional presence in the Warehouse space of the Festival. Without spoiling anything, the truth is that secrets and memories await in the out-of-time artifacts of the installation – and both interactive and performative aspects.
