The Schindler House presents an opening reception for “Kong Boos,” a musical exhibit by artist Stephanie Taylor, tonight from 7-9 p.m. The installation includes sculpture, print works and music that illustrates and expands the narratives from six songs written by Taylor from 2010-2014.

Taylor writes music based on sound sequences she finds in sentences. Dividing all sounds into A, E, I, O and U, she creates melodies she finds within selected phrases. All of her work has rhyming as its starting point; connections are thereby made between things that sound the same. Her recorded songs are included as elements of her visual installations. She uses the tongue-in-cheek conceptual strategy to create poetry from random strings of sounds, highlighting questions of meaning in and of language.

A chorus of five vocalists and a pianist will perform the six songs from the exhibition beginning at 7:30 p.m. The artist and chorus will perform an additional song, “Kindler’s Mouse,” which tells the story of a mouse working for a kindler by one of the many fireplaces in the house on Kings Road in West Hollywood.

The Schindler House is located at 835 N. Kings Road in West Hollywood. For more information, email office@MAKcenter.org or call (323)651-1510.
