Māra Māyā Dēvi

They/them

Māra Māyā Dēvi is a Sydney based performance and installation artist who works within the confines of the feminine and the monstrous and the brown and the body and the buddha and the blasphemer and the re-borne.

Their work looks at the organisation of mess and the filtering of soot, the face revealed and painted in clay and wood, and light and shadow.

White background darkened on one side. Close-up of a brown body, shoulders to head. Bald Brown Face, gilded in dollar shop gold paint. Black lips. Dark eyes.

4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art

4A Centre for Contemporary Asian Art acknowledges the Gadigal people, the traditional custodians of the land on which we live, work and create. We recognise the enduring connections between First Nations people and the land, waters, culture and communities that have existed for over 60,000 years. We pay our respects to Elders past and present. Always was, always will be, Aboriginal land.
