Lindsey Schulz was born and raised in Northern California. She received her BFA in 2011 from Otis College of Art and Design, and her MFA from the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts) in 2015.  Lindsey is the co-creator and co-host of the contemporary art podcast, Middlebrow.  She currently lives and works in Sebastopol, CA. 

Schulz is an interdisciplinary artist primarily working in installation, sculpture, drawing and video. She has long been fascinated with collections and preservation, whether that be notes, family photographs, archives or other. Her work embodies a research-like approach meticulously constructed through experiments, data, and categorization. 

Lindsey is interested in material minimalism and the abstraction of personal archives (notes, photographs, and home movies) alongside vintage archives (nature illustrations, cookbooks, and scientific diagrams). More recently she has been heavily researching our relationship to nature and our impact on the environment. As someone who was raised in an environmentally conscious area and spent most of her time outdoors, or exploring antique stores with her mother, her work collapses the imagery of her childhood. She enjoys the romanticized and nostalgic qualities of her work, especially while discussing complex social and environmental subjects.
