DIDIRELLA

Didirella is a Brazilian trans travesti superheroine living in Lisbon. She studied at the same school as Carlos Drummond de Andrade and Guimarães Rosa, where she bravely exercised her gender freedom amid bullying and harassment. To celebrate her transition, she released the visual album SUPERPUTA SPIRITUAL, composed exclusively for her by Diego Bragà, a hyper-pop delight. She was canceled, acclaimed, and resurrected. Every day, she locks herself in her room and dances frenetically toward a beautiful future ahead. As a transfeminist sex symbol, her creation is theatrical, sensory, and cathartic, connected to archaeology & ancestry, eroticism & spirituality, and magical abundance. She is happy.

“For me, pleasure has to be present because I think the world is already boring enough. When we experience a tedious work of art, whether it’s in the opera, theater, a gallery, or an album, no matter how conceptual it is (and today we live in a time full of justifications), I think we’re not offering what really matters in art: a bath of beauty. Beauty in the broadest sense possible. But pleasure can be explicit in the work, or implicit. And something obvious, which becomes clear when we look back at the artists we admire or at specific works, is that there’s a lot of pleasure behind them. It can be provocative, intellectual, or sexual pleasure.”
