As if all of this wasn’t enough to give her major street cred, she also used to pal around with the likes of Patti Smith and Jean Michel Basquiat (her ‘kindred spirit’), and write beautiful poems, and take awesome photographs. (‘Disiderta’ is one of her published works, which include a preface and illustrations by the aforementioned Patti Smith.) So… yeah. That pretty much sums up why I’m in love with this woman. Unfortunately, Lizzy Mercier Descloux died in 2004 due to complications with cancer, but her music and art still continue to enlighten.
