innovative solutions for anything soft: repurposing second hand clothes

and sews costumes for dance, music and theatre.

As a response to the current COVID-19 Pandemic, Agente Costura has also initiated the Maskerade Brigade, making and donating Facemasks to her community.

listen

Agente Costura’s improvisations are based on stitching and mending,
performed with sewing machines turned into noise boxes,
layered with oscillating self made wearable instruments.


Lisa Simpson plays solo and in different constellations
of artists, musicians, dancers, and curious audiences.
