Lizzi Bougatsos is an artist, lyricist and experimental musician living in Brooklyn, New York City. Her work is a complex expression of word, sound notions, collage, sculpture and performance.
We discuss creative rituals, climbing pyramids, making sound with voice and body, and the power of the Sinead O’connor's ‘arrgghh’.
Lizzi is of Gang Gang Dance (of 25 years), I.U.D with Sadie Laska and has collaborated with many artists inc. Kim Gordon, Rita Ackerman (Angel Blood), Yoshimo + OOIOO, Lonnie Holley et al. Lizzi led the 8/8/08 BOADRUM, a collaboration with the Boredoms, singing with 88 drummers in an outdoor performance, in New York City and has exhibited work and performed at institutions including The Sao Paulo Biennale, Pace Gallery, American Fine Arts Co., TRAMPS, James Fuentes, Museo d’arts Contemporanea di Roma, Astrup, White Columns, Performance Space NY, The Whitney Museum of American Art and Bergan Kunsthall, Norway and Galerie Molitor, Berlin.
