Moving between Dante and Leoncavallo, Goethe and Sianne Ngai, opera and aesthetic theory, the clown and the politician, spectacle and labour, and regimes of affect and representation, MAMMA examines a contemporary condition defined by the perpetual imperative to perform.

Artist unbound by discipline or method and devoted, among other things, to observation. Driven by curiosity and a diverse path, explores and shapes hybrid poetic forms through visual and performative devices. She expresses herself publicly and primarily as a performer, costume designer, creator, and dramaturg. Her work tries to expose representational structures, deconstructs memory and canon, and embraces discomfort, vulnerability, and eroticism as forces to generate dissonance and estrangement.
