LINA LAPELYTE
Lina Lapelytė (b. 1984, Kaunas, Lithuania) is an artist and composer whose performance-based practice is rooted in music and explores pop culture, gender stereotypes, and nostalgia. She is best known for Sun & Sea (with Vaiva Grainytė and Rugilė Barzdžiukaitė), which won the Golden Lion at the 2019 Venice Biennale. Working between Vilnius and London, she collaborates with trained and untrained performers to create collective acts of singing that question systems of silencing and invite vulnerability.
Among other places, her work has been presented at Festival d'Automne/Bourse de Commerce (Paris), Wiener Festwochen, BAM, MOCA, the Venice Biennale, Taipei and Shanghai Biennials, Performa (New York), Hamburger Bahnhof (Berlin), and Medina Triennial (New York), Tate Modern (London), Milano Triennale.
