Lisa Simpson is an artist, performer, craftivist, seamstress, teacher, instrument builder and noise enthusiast. Her performance project Agente Costura, led by a singing sewing machine, is a continuous building site for self playing, oscillating, blinking, touch sensitive, light sensitive, talking, soft, found, stitched, glitched, and hacked instruments, acting and reacting in an ever fluctuating state of chaos. It’s all a matter of resistance.

Lisa has a Bachelor degree in Visual Arts from Universidade Tuiuti do Paraná, a Master of Applied Arts degree from Emily Carr University of Art and Design, and is a graduate of the Institute for Art in Context at Universität der Künste Berlin. She has performed extensively on an international level, including Goethe Institut Jakarta, Schneidertempel Istanbul, Akademie der Künste, HKW, The Vancouver Art Gallery, Museum der Fünf Kontinente Munich, the Bimhuis Amsterdam, Curitiba Fashion Week, Museu Machado de Castro, Münchener Stadtmuseum, Errant Sound Gallery, among others. Lisa currently lives and works in Berlin, and is involved in a range of different projects in collaboration with artists, musicians, and interested audiences.
