April 23rd through July 2, 2017, I was a part of the COLA20 exhibition at Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery.
In the exhibition and subsequent catalog, were photographs from (In)/Animate Objects taken by Alex Griffin.
(In)/Animate Objects, was an installation and performance at LAMAG in which a mountain of decaying rag dolls towers to the ceiling, upon which their maker, the grandmother, presides from the throne of her wingback chair.
In the reading room, I also contributed the script from the 2014 workshop of Object of Her Affection and programs from Bride of Wildenstein – The Musical and Object of Her Affection.
Object of Her Affection was a solo object and puppet-based performance art piece centered on a woman, who in her search for true love develops intimate relationships with inanimate objects.
Bride of Wildenstein – The Musical, was a solo cabaret performance with puppets and masks in which an aging socialite grows fur and claws to recapture her philandering game hunter husband’s attention.

The exhibition and subsequent catalog recognizing the achievements of 271 design, literary, performing, and visual master artists and artist-duos who represent the creative legacy of Los Angeles.
