The Mattress Factory is an artist-centered museum, international residency program and renowned producer and presenter of installation art. We say “yes” to artists, offering time and space to dream and realize projects in our hometown, Pittsburgh, PA. We invite audiences from around the world and around the corner to step inside, immerse and connect with the artistic process.
The Greer Lankton Collection is organized by material and is separated into eight series; Correspondence, Ephemera and Administrative Papers, Journals, Periodicals, Photo Albums, Photographs, Slides and Negatives, and Artwork.
The Mattress Factory acquired a rundown row-house near its original building and commissioned me to design a living space for its Artists-in-Residence program.

A form of smoothly troweled, unfinished concrete occupies most of the room. It is compressed between the ceiling and floor, swelling out around its middle.
Ship of Fools: Discovery of Time

You open the door into a room to see a disaster, frozen in time. The floor has been raised to show the effects of a mounting flood.
