The Salty Series: Estate Sale is an interactive and immersive installation and performance curated by filmmaker and multimedia artist Valerie Jackson. Conceived and created by Jackson in collaboration with composer Sebastian Sack and animator Kai Tattersall, “Estate Sale” is a multimedia installation that combines video, music, live performance, photography, and personal memorabilia to create a surreal reconstruction of the artist’s apartment in Los Angeles, immersing the audience in an intimate experience of memory. The installation is open from 7 p.m. until 9 p.m., and audience members are invited to come, explore at their own pace, enjoy a beverage, and immerse themselves in a world of nostalgia, reflection, and discovery. Influenced by her work in the film industry and the creative culture of young filmmakers in Los Angeles, Jackson blends illustration, collage, and photography to explore the blurred lines between fiction and reality in everyday life. “Estate Sale” presents city scenes and characters through a cartoonish lens, using iconic American imagery and accessible materials like acrylic paint, cardboard, and digital photography to evoke familiarity. Collaborating with Kai Tattersall, she incorporated personal photos and textures to build the world of the apartment, while Sebastian Sack’s music, featuring samples and pop references, creates an intimate sound environment. Sack will perform live in the space at 8 p.m., with guests invited to explore the artwork and socialize before and after the performance.
