FWM x Pig Iron, Episode 1: Francesca Montanile Lyons
In this episode of Halftone, multidisciplinary artist Francesca Montanile Lyons revisits her thirteen-year-old self, conjuring the voice of Vladamir Nabokov’s character Lolita. Pairing entries from her own teenage diary with the voice of the character Humbert Humbert, she ponders the persistent complexity of beauty and the voyeuristic gaze.
Halftone, a new podcast series from The Fabric Workshop and Museum, embodies the experimental nature of the Workshop and draws inspiration from our collaborations with artists. Halftone brings you stories from this place we so often inhabit in the creative process: the space between the known and the unknown. This pilot season, presented in partnership with Pig Iron Theatre Company, takes inspiration from Blood Moon, The Fabric Workshop and Museum exhibition featuring a recent collaboration with artists Mary Reid Kelley and Patrick Kelley.
