Samra Mayanja

Bio:

Samra Mayanja is an artist and writer based in London, England whose work across various mediums is unified by an obsession with how life speaks poetry. Her work is always seeking form, to move beyond strictures, to be lost and free. The voice, in her work, functions as the search party for the body that she once forgot somewhere over there. Her desire to improvise—to create unfiltered, lucid, and meandering utterances—underpins her writing, pedagogy, performance, installation, and film works.
