Hello ︎ ︎

Mary Olin (Mo) Geiger is an interdisciplinary artist whose work emphasizes cooperation and hands-on experiential learning. Her projects take the form of mixed-media and site-specific sculpture, painting, performance, scenic design, texts, and socially-engaged practice. She seeks overlooked histories, hidden spectacular worlds, and people who are passionate about their own webs of unique knowledge. Made through research, shared labor, and play, her work is an invitation to nourish a curious sense of wonder within mundane systems that shape daily life. She is currently based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

Her projects have been produced and shown in galleries, museums, theaters, festivals, artist residencies, local organizations, and public or unconventional spaces such as farms, construction sites, crosswalks, parks, storefronts, and the shores of a human-made lake. She holds an MFA from Portland State University in Art and Social Practice and a BFA in Theatrical Design and Technology from Syracuse University. From 2022-25, she was the Director of Collaborative Programs and Projects at Carlisle Arts Learning Center in Carlisle, PA. Currently, she is a co-artistic director and co-founder of the devised performance collective Valley Traction.
