MIREYA LUCIO

ROLE CALL

How is time spending you?

Mireya Lucio is an interdisciplinary artist, writer, performer, intuitive, and educator from Puerto Rico based in Los Angeles. A trained actor, singer, and physical performer (BFA Tisch/NYU; Moscow Art Theatre; MFA CalArts), she allows amateur and do-it-yourself aesthetics to disturb established modes of theatrical performance, creating space for the transformation of embodied research into ritual acts of decolonization. Her work has taken the form of dinners, lectures, walking tours, videos, stage shows, and game nights. Recent solo works include Brandenburg Gate: The American Hits (PAM), and “¡Con la boca es un mamey!” (Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions). Her collaborative practice with Sallie Merkel, Emotional Labor Co.,  weaves popular culture and academic inquiry into non-linear, transgressive studies of female experience: Our-So-Called Sleepover, or, Freud and Jung Crash 1995 Through a Ouija Board (LAX Festival), The Commons (digital series), and the iterative Witches’ Cabaret (We Put a Spell on You!  at Machine Project's Mystery Theater; Witch House at CalArts; Love Spells at Mast on Fig; and Casting into the Unknown, presented via livestream).  mireyalucio.com
