About Me
Dijle Neva Yigitbas, also known as Neva Deelay, is a versatile artist and musician active in performing arts and film. Since 2007, she has established herself as a unique and innovative creator in audiovisual art and composition.
As the founder of the independent label Abow Production, she highlights creative and norm-breaking talents within the media industry.
Dijle is a dedicated meditator and keeps her artistic and spiritual practices closely intertwined, inviting the audience to a curious inner exploration through her works. She combines critical questions with her characteristic and musical expressionism, weaving dreamlike worlds that challenge the boundaries between sound and image, fantasy and everyday life, idealism and reality.
In 2019, Dijle debuted with her self-produced audiovisual project Galax-Ma - a conceptual feminist utopia that aims to go beyond the boundaries of what we believe is possible (released as a film and vinyl), marking the beginning of a new era of integrating music, film, and performance in her works. Since then, she has released Queens Date Themselves - a hybrid of music video, mockumentary, and art film in three parts that, with an ecofeminist perspective, aims to highlight the connection between the oppression of women and the oppression of the earth.
She is currently working on DEVOTED in collaboration with Lisa Janbell, continuing to bring to life new and ancient worlds where women take the lead.
