Léna Lewis-King

• Directing

Léna Lewis-King (London, 1999) is an artist filmmaker whose work explores intersections between systems of production and construction, feminist post-humanist theory, phenomena of experience, ecologies, and technologies. She studied Film at Kingston University in London and received support from Channel 4's Random Acts program, in partnership with ICA London, to begin her artistic practice as a filmmaker. Her work, framed through a feminist lens, explores the mystical and spiritual dimensions of lived experiences. Through mediums such as film, photography, painting, drawing, collage and installation, she considers the proliferation of technocapitalist acceleration on the ephemeral essence of life. Her works are exhibited in international exhibitions, screenings, and lectures. Among her recent exhibitions is the group show at Museu Bordalo Pinheiro of July 2024, alongside her solo show “Dell’historia Naturale” held at Rua das Gaivotas 6 in Lisbon in 2023. She has also previously participated in group exhibitions such as “This is Not a Chance Encounter” at the Journeys Festival in the UK (2022), “Sequência de Sonhos” at Lisbon Art Weekend in Portugal (2022), and “Io Dico Io” at La Galleria Nazionale in Italy (2021). Her films have been showcased at venues and festivals such as the London Short Film Festival, Waking Life, Figura Avulsa, Carpintarias São Lázaro, Fondazione Giuliani, Soho House Rome, Chisenhale Gallery, Roundhouse London, BFI London, South London Gallery, and many others. In addition to her artistic activity, Léna Lewis-King is actively involved in organizing group events, such as screenings and book clubs, through Apertura Institute based in Lisbon, with the aim of connecting people worldwide, and is a co-founder of the association FutureCultures.
