The Garage Lab Performance: Aloha Mischeaux

Aloha Mischeaux is a singer, writer, and producer who was a finalist on American Idol and is a member of the hip hop duo The Knuckles.

Located in Sculpture Hall, The Garage Lab by Gary Simmons recalls the structure of a typical suburban garage set up with amps and equipment for band practice. In addition to constructing the garage’s wooden frame, Simmons lined the interior with historic and contemporary concert posters collected over many years from around the world. The digitally altered posters also include nods to the St. Louis hip hop scene.

Created as a space for community interaction, The Garage Lab serves as a venue for live performances by poets, musicians, dancers, and DJs. When the space is not being activated by performances, video playback of previous productions will be displayed on a nearby monitor.
