muSa michelle mattiuzzi

muSa michelle mattiuzzi (*1983 in São Paulo) is a Berlin-based performer, visual artist, writer, and filmmaker. She considers herself a citizen of the world, and works across a wide range of media and modalities—often with the body and voice—in an exploration of presence, physicality, and communication. Unspoken contracts, colonial violence, the plantation system, official archives, intimate fictions—these are a few of the elements that find their way into her work. She has participated in numerous group exhibitions, most recently in the Tiroler Kunstpavillon in Innsbruck (2025), the Kunsthistorisches Institut in Florence – Max Planck Institute (2024–2026), the Brücke-Museum in Berlin (2021), the 34th Bienal de São Paulo (2021), and the Haus der Kulturen der Welt in Berlin (2018/2019).
