R3YWYA

R3YWYA is the noise project of Riga‑based artist Evija Ābrama. Working through improvisation, she treats sound as a form of human communication — instinctive, fragmented, and constantly reshaped. Her practice centers on second‑hand cassette tapes found in thrift shops: objects marked by abandonment, carrying traces of forgotten personal histories. Rather than approaching them as degraded relics, she reuses them as raw material, almost like recycling sound. Through interaction with modern synthesizers, these tapes become active collaborators, speaking again in unexpected textures and broken signals.

R3YWYA has performed at Skaņu Mežs, Tallinn Music Week, and other platforms dedicated to exploratory and experimental sound. Across live sets and installations, Evija creates environments where reclaimed audio, noise, and immediacy collide — inviting listeners into a space where memory is not preserved but reinterpreted, repurposed, and continually transformed.

R3YWYA will bring her sonic arts to Mimerlaven, and we are excited for her to tear up our eardrums together in an electrifying noise performance bound to captivate you as the emitted sonic mass reflects off your eardrums.
