Calendar Fall and Winter 2025

October 2025. It’s been a very busy summer and I’m delighted to share several upcoming chances to see video and installation work of mine in the US, UK, and France this fall.
Premiering 13 Nov, Everyone, Ever is my personal highlight. The latest Nighthouse Studio collaboration between Elaine Buckholtz and myself, Everyone, Ever was commissioned by the 2025 Lumiere Festival in Durham, England. From November 13th to 15th we will be transforming the nearly 1000 year old Durham Cathedral into a site specific light and projection installation exploring the layered histories held within the stone of the building – belief, power, persistence, and presence. Timed tickets are free, but many days are selling out.
Hope to see you at an event or otherwise in person soon,
Ian

13 Nov. – 15 Nov.  Everyone Ever. 2025 Lumiere Festival, Durham, UK.
premiere of the new collaboration of Elaine Buckholtz and myself set within the vast and solemn interior of Durham Cathedral, EVERYONE EVER draws attention to the layered histories held within the stone of the building – belief, power, persistence, and presence. Referencing both the land that existed before the Cathedral and the technological age that shapes how we perceive and remember, the work is a poetic confrontation in stone and light with the forces of time and transformation.
