How can the Museum of Black Futures truly embody reparations? What is reparation? What does it consist of? How does it feel? Our good friend Djuwa Mroivili weighs in on these questions. Djuwa is an interdisciplinary artist and performer based in Amsterdam. With a background in classical piano, she graduated from ArtEZ in 2021 and has since developed a distinctive practice that blends music, theatre, text, fashion, hair design, and performance into a powerful artistic language.
You should also really look her up on this music streaming platform, cause she has released an amazing album together with bass player James Oesi. Together they spotlight overlooked composers from the African diaspora.
She’s currently affiliated with the Production House of Theater Rotterdam, where she created I Vow To Distract Forever. A really cool performance that questions the rigid rules of the classical music world. In her upcomig project 'Mx. CoelaCunt will live forever' Djuwa explores ritual, queerness, and resistance in Comorian culture. For Djuwa, music is both memory and healing, can’t wait to unpack that with her.
This podcasts sounds so crisp because of the hard work, dedication and friendship with Marcellino van Callias of La Fam Productions.
