Lizzie Bougatsos is an artist, and the vocalist and drummer for the experimental music group Gang Gang Dance. "Retina Riddim," an abstract documentary about the band that wove together music, found footage and interview clips, was included in the 2008 Whitney Biennial. Their fourth album, Saint Dymphna, was released last fall.

This is my favorite art piece at the moment. I found it on the curbside in a garbage can in Chinatown by my house. It’s like the steel drum I play with Gang Gang Dance. I think a car hit it and that’s how it got that slammin’ dent! It reminds me why I started playing music in the first place: rhythm, beauty and color!
