It might be a cliche to call someone a Renaissance woman, but it's difficult to describe Lexie Mountain any other way. The artist, writer, musician and comedian has been a mainstay in Baltimore's arts and DIY communities for years, creating work that often grapples with gender and communication. Lexie might be best known for The Lexie Mountain Boys, an all-female experimental vocal group that put out two records on Carpark Records. Lexie talked about using art to stave off depression, and told the story behind some of her projects, including an attempt at staging the world's longest game of telephone at The Walters Art Museum in May. Lexie also is a writer -- full disclosure, she contributes to City Paper and has written for The Baltimore Sun in the past -- and she's currently in a rock band called Scroll Downers. Lexie also discussed Twitter, tarot and finding her scene.
