LAX is a performance installation for atypical spaces and museums built to meet diverse audiences where they are.

Across a 1-2 hour experience, the performer interrogates our perceptions of rest and the tenets of Tension & Release, offering ecstatic participatory activities of discovery with textiles, others, and ultimately themselves. Always in conversation with another artist or exhibit currently on display.
