Dimensions Variable

Dimensions Variable was founded in 2009 by artists Frances Trombly and Leyden Rodriguez-Casanova who currently collaborate and co-direct the project space. With the award of a 2015 WaveMaker Grant, Dimensions Variable is able to double the stipend provided to an artist, or groups of artists, in support their project, to facilitate more ambitious exhibitions from both local and international artists, strengthen the quality of programming, and increase public hours. 

Line Script Diary

Line Script Diary's primary goal is to serve as a mediated and discursive site for the exploration of ideas and executions within the realm of text-based works. Functioning as a quarterly journal, Line Script Diary compliments existing Miami-based publications as a more abstract and inclusive site of experimentation, not only as a publication for the immediate community, but also as a venue of exchange between new contributors, locally and non-locally.

Contributors of the premier issue are local and non-local artists, writers, poets, curators, scholars, and philosophers. Line Script Diary will be available at no cost to the public, while offering honorariums to its contributors. The publication will launch each quarter with a public event in Miami which will focus on the content of the current issue. The premier issue is launched in the Spring of 2015 at Locust Projects, with a performance by New York-based artist Ben Vida, which utilized his text piece within the premier issue as a “script” for a new iteration of Slipping Control.

Fringe Projects

Informed by world-class public art agencies Creative Time (New York) and Artangel (London), Fringe Projects are site-determined commissioned artworks that integrate, investigate, and interrogate Downtown Miami’s less conventional spaces in a wide range of practices from interventions, to context specific installation, and participatory performance-based works.

Now in its 4th year, Fringe Projects has grown from a component of the three-day Downtown Art Days event produced by the Miami Downtown Development Authority to and independent agency for commissioning site-determined public art on an ongoing basis. Curated by Amanda Sanfilippo, the steadfast curatorial vision of privileging artist’s ideas to realize challenging, cutting-edge works in the public realm at sites determined by the artists holds firm.
