Lisi Raskin's creative and curricular practices have become laboratories where the artist deliberately builds anti-architectural bridges between queer, disabled, and trans ontologies, collaborative making, interventions into normative systems of power, and engaged pedagogy. These laboratories have supported the making of paintings, drawings, objects, videos, animations, and large, constructed environments that house pedagogical, performative, and socially engaged programming. Raskin is currently working on a book about engaged and inclusive pedagogy. As a member of the rock band Peebls, Raskin has loved, laughed, cooked, and eaten in the process of co-authoring a demo album of intersectional propaganda for children of all ages.

Raskin has exhibited internationally at institutions including Kunsthaus Graz, Casino Luxembourg, the Frankfurter Kunstverein, the Contemporary Art Center, Vilnius, PS1/MoMA Contemporary Art Center, the Blanton Museum of Art, the Center for Curatorial Studies/Hessel Museum at Bard College, and the Rubin Museum of Art. Their web projects have been published in Triple Canopy magazine, with The Dia Foundation, and on Creative Time Global Reports. They have built large-scale environments at the 11th International Istanbul Biennale, the 2nd Athens Biennale, and the 3rd Singapore Biennale. They have installed site-sensitive sound projects in the 1st Time Machine Biennale of Contemporary Art, D-O Ark Underground and the Momentum 7 Biennale of Nordic Art.

Raskin is currently an Associate Professor and Department Head of Sculpture at Rhode Island School of Design.
