Lindsay Montgomery is an artist working across a variety of media including ceramics, video, painting, and puppetry. She holds degrees from the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design, and the University of Minnesota. Her work has been exhibited internationally, and in recent exhibitions at the Gardiner Museum, the Burlington Art Centre, and Craft Ontario.

Throughout the duration of the exhibition Montgomery transforms her room into Third Eye Experimental Figure Theater. Bringing together elements of installation, puppetry, and performance, the piece offers additional moments for interaction throughout CUTMR’15. Viewers will be invited to observe performances intended more as kinetic sculpture then traditional theater, and a variety of local musicians will provide the score for each work.

See her studio visit!
