Artist Bios
Love Art Laboratory—“We, Elizabeth Stephens & Annie Sprinkle, are an artist couple committed to doing projects that explore, generate, and celebrate love. The Love Art Lab grew out of our response to the violence of war, the anti-gay marriage movement, and our prevailing culture of greed causing the destruction of our planet. We utilize performance art, visual art, installation, and interventions. Incorporating the seven-year, seven-chakra structure created by artist Linda M. Montano, our projects explore different themes and colors. Each year we orchestrate one or more big interactive performance art weddings in collaboration with various international communities, and everyone is invited. We have had eight amazing weddings in the past five years. To learn more about our art experiments, visit www.loveartlab.org.
