Christy Nyboer received her BFA at Alfred University, School of Art & Design (NY), where she studied neon, glass, printing, painting & mixed media sculpture. Born and raised in Alaska - she worked & lived in NYC & Northern California before moving to Portland in 2000. During her time in NYC, Christy worked as Pat Steir’s personal studio assistant and helped install many of her pubic art installations.

Christy has shown her work nationally and internationally, but has been most busy in recent years working as owner and designer of companies Little Lark and Wooly Bowls in Portland, Oregon. She looks forward to getting involved in more site-specific projects similar to “Forgotten Lake” in the near future.

Ian Epps is a Brooklyn based musician whose work explores immateriality through dense harmonic fields, a full spectrum sound combining room tone and feedback that is hypersensitive in its closeness while expansive in a drift of indeterminacy. Allowing the physical sound and the dynamics of the room to influence the shape of the unfolding acoustics, the room is played as an instrument.

His compositions, soundtracks and field recordings have been exhibited in museums and institutions internationally at venues including MoMA PS1, Museum of Modern Art, the New Museum, Gagosian, Gavin Brown’s Enterprise, Walker Art Center, Wexner Center for the Arts, Hallwalls Contemporary Art Center, LoveBytes (UK) and Carré d’Art – Musée d’art Contemporain.
