Billy Roisz
Austria

The Viennese video and performance artist and musician Billy Roisz (*1967) has been working intensively with video and sound since the 1990s. Her work focuses on connections and gaps between visual and auditory perception. Roisz questions the interaction between sound and image by interweaving and reusing image- and sound-generating instruments. The aesthetics of image and sound interference, such as feedback and distortion, is one of her fields of experimentation. Her work finds its artistic expression in live performances, video works and audiovisual installations, which she realizes solo or in collaboration with exponents of experimental music and noise such as Dieb 13, Kai Fagaschinksi and Liz Albee. Her works have been shown internationally, including at the Berlinale, the Tate Modern London and the Centre Pompidou in Paris.
