Ms. Patterson has pioneered a new area of design for symphony orchestras in creating installations for the Brooklyn Philharmonic, Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, Philadelphia Orchestra and American Symphony Orchestra. This introduction of art installations and lighting effects has revolutionized the concert experience.
Career highlights for Ms. Patterson include "Cosi Fan Tutte" directed by Jonathan Miller at BAM's Harvey Theater, "Every Good Boy Deserves Favor" by Stoppard/Previn for the Philadelphia Orchestra, and "Women of Brewster Place" co-produced by the Alliance Theater and Arena Stage.
She received a 2006 Creative Capital Grant to create "Mercury Soul", an installation/musical collaboration with composer Mason Bates.
