Amanda KM: as ppl carry them will unfold in and outside the galleries at Lawndale over the next year. In the first part of the project, the public is invited to join the artist on Wednesdays-Saturdays (September 16-26) from 12-2 PM in a collaborative-quasi-installation-recording-booth in the Grace R. Cavnar Gallery.
Corners of the gallery are activated with objects and images that remind us of those who came before us. Guests are invited to leave an object on a table for the duration of their visit or longer. A sound booth records visitors’ voices as they speak about practices they are carrying that continue to live inside them, whether enacted or not.
