Artistic statement
Lilia Scheerder (Eindhoven, the Netherlands, 1986) is a performance artist, printmaker and organizer of cultural events.
My performances are often inspired by music and performances by musicians. I have been trying to integrate this element into my work for years. My work can these days be defined as sound performance with a strong visual element.
In the last years, my performances often involved home-made instruments made from different materials, most recently, metal.
I have collaborated with several musicians and artists working with sound.
Apart from performance art, I also work with other media, most noteworthy graphic art (etching, silkscreen print) and sometimes installation. My visual work is often developed at the same time as a performance and plays a role in it.
Currently, I work as an organizer for the artspace Extrapool in Nijmegen, I perform as my alter ego Antoine Panaché and I co-founded the DIY label Barreuh records in my hometown of Eindhoven.
