Carson Day and Lisa Marie Malloy will be in dialogue with filmmaker Jennifer Reeder. Both working in multi-media installation, the artists have set aside time in the hour prior to the discussion to focus attention on their respective time-based works in Gallery 400. Day’s multimedia installation, a pie left cold in Our Towne™, inspired by the great American roadside attraction, exists on the perimeter of theater — an ongoing one-room play about a contemporary American town. Malloy’s Love is the Sound the Sound is Deaf is an installation exploring the dreamscape of the Ooom in the acoustic afterlife of sonic warfare.

 

Carson Day is a multi-disciplinary artist and fabricator from the heart of America. His practice rides a line between prop comedy and critical theory. The fabricated object and the found object act as the physical junction of art, poetry, value, as well as class, Americana, and satire.

Lisa Marie Malloy creates installations, short, and feature films that channel a collective plurality of imagined realities. Kneading the night—above and below ground—she brings memory, myth, nonlinear time, and systems of power and control into focus. She frequently collaborates with communities in rural settings across the U.S., Taiwan, and Honduras.
