MANGINA
VALMONTE SPROUT

Mangina (aka Patrick Bucklew), downtown painter, sculptor, & performance artist, is best known for his prosthetic genitals, (the mangina & wenis). Bucklew performs wearing the mangina with his other inventions, (Water filled) bubble-head, aloe medallion, etc., soliciting the audience on stage to experience a hands on tactile interaction. Mangina has been written about in Jonathan Ames books, Time, page 6 of the New York Post, & countless other publications. Mangina also plays original songs with an accordion or piano singing about his life. David Clement, friend & fellow performer, once said, 'how could you not like a one legged bubble-head pussy clad skinny man singing.' Bucklew will often bring art & inventions to the show for sale. Bring an out of town guest to experience a true New York phenomenon!
