Finishing School




M.O.L.D. Performative Installation, Angels Gate, 2009

M.O.L.D. is a hot zone-themed installation and workshop that investigates the science, politics, and culture of food decomposition. The audience is invited to participate in various experiments, build their own amateur bioindicators, and engage in a critical conversation about the quality and safety of the food we consume.





Finding Joy Workshop, MOCA Los Angeles, 2008

Taking its name from a military term describing the act of making radio contact with comrades on the battlefield, Finding Joy was a site-specific audio workshop at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Los Angeles. Workshop participants were provided with the raw materials to build small DIY foxhole radios, which they used to locate prerecorded transmissions exploring perceptions of joy.
