Description

QUAD is delighted that the artist Maria Machin will be undertaking a residency with us from 12 – 18 Dec 2022. We are happy to start a new program, QUAD Staff Artist in Residence Scheme, that across the super team here at QUAD we have a lot of amazing creative individuals who work in a range of roles across the organisation. Maria’s Instagram takeover on quad_ gallery will be between 13 – 17 December 2022. 

QUAD is excited to work with them on a week residency where Maria Machin is very much present through one-to-one interactions with the QUAD team, taking over and utilising our Instagram page as a virtual exhibition space. 

Maria’s Biography and Personal Statement  

YAY MARIA (she/her) is a transgender musician, artist & filmmaker from the midlands, who makes queer pop music for feelz & boogying. 

In 2023, she will release her first Extended Play ‘Superbia’, for which she will be working on artwork & a music video.  

Accompanied by acclaimed visual artist Sian Morrell, they intend to utilise the space to create something arresting & powerful as part of the project.   

The work will explore the themes within the music of queer love, loneliness leading to self-acceptance & love. She hopes it's good times for all.
