Jed Lind lives in Los Angeles where he graduated from the California Institute of the Arts. Lind's contribution to the 2004 exhibition Supersonic, which featured the work of more than 120 graduating students from L.A.'s famed art schools, was noted in critic Christopher Knight's Los Angeles Times review as "a sharp, seductive work ...(and) a highly original meditation." Lind continues to investigate technologies that highlight the way the natural and the man made affect each other. The fall 2005 season at Jessica Bradley Art & Projects opened with Lind's exhibition A False Dawn, which included his video installation Limelight accompanied by a series of related photographs and sculptures.
Lind continues to be inspired by related yet disparate histories. These include the provisional architecture of coastal societies, Buckminster Fuller's utopian legacy symbolized by the geodesic dome, and the doomed idealism of 1970s American artists Gordon Matta-Clark and Robert Smithson. His work was recently featured in the international exhibition Universal Code at the Power Plant, Toronto.
