The Diva Welcomes you

Djuwa Mroivili: multidisciplinary artist, afro-hair inspirator, fangirl, curator and researcher

Trained as a classical pianist, she also plays with other performance formats in which music plays a role. The performances she develops as a maker are often deeply personal, socially critical and conceptually layered, and inspired by findings from archival research. Also: they look fabulous.

meet the Diva

Djuwa Mroivili (Amsterdam, 1998) is a Comorian-Dutch multidisciplinary artist, afro-hair inspirator, fangirl, curator and researcher based in Amsterdam. 

Although she is trained as a classical pianist, and concerts are still part of her practice (both solo and in collaboration with others), she also experiments with other performance formats in which music plays a role. The performances she develops as a maker are often socially critical and conceptually layered in nature, and are often inspired by findings from archival research.
