Biography
Léna Lewis-King (1999) is a European/American artist filmmaker whose work engages with everyday magical transformations emerging within the intersections between nature and technology. Her work is presented through the mediums of moving image, animation, photography, painting, digital drawing, and installation. Framing her perspective from a feminist viewpoint, she often features psychic and spiritual aspects of lived experience, as her films meditate on the impact techno-capitalist acceleration exerts upon ephemeral life and living in the world. She is looking to collaborate with artists, experimental filmmakers, curators, programmers and sound artists on future projects and exhibitions.
Her first short film Untitled Sequence was commissioned by Channel 4 Random Acts in 2016. Her recent film The Self Portrait (L’autoritratto) is currently available to watch on Google Arts and Culture/La Galleria Nazionale’s collaborative feminist archive (Women Up), alongside being available to watch on The Bomb Factory’s online edition of the 2021 ‘Artists Film Festival’.
