UPAW (THE END) ZAHY GUAJAJARA

Zahy Guajajara

The actor and activist Zahy Guajajara, the lead in the sci-fi trilogy and collaborator with Pedro Neves Marques in the exhibition YWY, Visions, is carrying out a performance lecture, laced with irony, in which she questions supposedly universal concepts from her own worldview.

In her own words: “UPAW – The End is a ritual with the intention of curing us of ourselves, intrepid, special beings that we are. The fact that human learning pretends to be superior to the learning of the rest of the world is an eternal tragedy. This is a ritual to reflect on what we have become and the world we have created. The end has come too soon.”

ZAHY GUAJAJARA

Zahy Guajajara was born in the Cana Brava indigenous reservation in Maranhão (Brazil). She currently works as a writer and a television, theatre and film actor in movies like Macunaima (2020) and Não Devore Meu Coração (2017).
