Hello World, we are Die Primas—Marcela and Moira, a duo of experimental maricón folklore. We explore popular memories through queer language, using music, performance, and media arts.
Our name, Die Primas, plays on the richness of language: in Chilean maricón slang, "prima" means a close friend, while in German, "Prima!" means fantastic.
Though based in Bremen, we come from the Andes, and our work exists between resistance and celebration. For us, queer is a way of being—expressed through affection, humor, and courage—rooted in the everyday and the imperfect.
