ELISE PASSAVANT
aka TanKmutation
Born in 1977 Le Havre, Normandie, France. Resides between Barcelona and Paris.
Filmmaker, editor, photographer, VJ and video manipulator Elise Passavant, is a selfproclaimed «multimedia Swiss-army knife”. Having directed over 200 professional commercials for web cast, and with more than 25 video shorts under her belt, Elise straddles the underground music video/alternative art scene as well as mainstream media, in 2011 her short Wonder Woman was awarded the grand prize from Unisep in France for best public service announcement.
Her video shorts have been showcased in international film festivals from Europe to Japan including the prestigious German Museums Stat Regensburg and Haus der Kulturen der Welt in Berlin.
By employing a variety of film and still cameras, the pirating-sampling of images and her textural post-production techniques, she creates a sensual visual poetry uniquely her own.

LYDIA LUNCH

Lydia Lunch refused the confines of a formal education, opting instead to establish herself as a No Wave musician in New York City in 1976.
An independent artist prolific in music, literature, film, video and photography, she has performed as well as taught workshops at numerous Universities, Museums and Art Festivals for three decades and continues to explore new mediums in which to express her passion and creativity. Lydia Lunch was voted by Timeout New York as one of the most influential performers originating from NYC and has worked with dozens of other renegades including Sonic Youth, Nick Cave, Omar-Rodrigues Lopez, Karen Finley, Richard Kern and Hubert Selby Jr.
