Have you ever travelled on a hammock? It’s thanks to this ancestral object that Mayara Yamada takes us into a journey through time and space. The Marara Kelly Art Show is a series of performances building a self-mythology. The artist is looking to meet Marara Kelly, her own partying and pleasure entity.
Center stage, the hammock on which enters Marara. Transformed into a mean of transportation, it travels through time and blurs borders. A scenographic object, from which stories and new worlds can emerge.
Mayara Yamada uses the hammock as a symbol of Indigenous resistance. To get on the subject of colonisation, the hammock is historically and politically contextualized. This performance is a moving piece, sailing in an ocean of subjectivities and enchantment. Faith in partying, the magic of celebrating and the ability to travel without borders.
Born in Belém do Pará, in the Brazilian Amazon, Mayara Yamada is an artist, performer and DJ living in Switzerland.
Her research is mainly focused on performance art, but also engages with other media such as photography, audiovisuals, theater and music. The main themes at the core of her work deal with subjects such as autobiography and the study of the body, landscape and memory, with an emphasis on the investigation of cultural codes and symbols of the Brazilian Amazon. As an artist in transit since 2010, Mayara investigates how to displace elements of her original culture into other contexts using tools of translation and transposition in a practice she defines as trans-situ. With a lively research interest in the history of performance and the many ways in which this language can be used to develop her work, she is interested in questioning notions of recording, archiving, reenactment, presence, theatricality and performativity. Writing is also an important element in her creations, appearing in various formats such as dramaturgy, autofiction, storytelling, poetry, autobiographical narrative, stand-up comedy, letter, manifesto and so on. Currently, with the Marara Kelly Art Show series and its deployments, she crosses her stage-performative practice with her sound practice as a DJ, through a research that crosses the world of pop and kitsch, the figure of the pop star and the sacred and profane elements in celebratory events in Brazil: always questioning the identity, landscape and contexts in which music is produced and diffused, particularly in the world of partying and the different nightlife between the continents where she acts.
