drendiela is the name and concept that DJ, visual artist, and anthropologist Julia Mota adopted in 2016, after crossing paths with a magical Colombian traveler and illusionist. When the magician asked her name, she responded with another question: "What name do you think I have?" The answer was "drendiela," followed by a story about its meaning.

In essence, drendiela represents an imagistic person who transits between worlds, a time traveler who crosses binary divisions, moving through the past, present, and future. Since that singular encounter, Julia has been bringing this character to life, adding new layers of meaning. Julia merges with drendiela when she signs her artistic creations with this name.

For Julia, a native of Paracatu (tupi-guarani name that means ‘good river’), a city in Minas Gerais that hosts one of the largest open-pit gold mines in the world, and living in Brasília, the capital of Brazil, an "idealized city," since the age of seven, drendiela symbolizes a dream, a utopia, an unfinished code, a disruption, and decentralization. It is a continuous experiment whose purpose is to expand our capacities to imagine other possible worlds, other lines and curves, narratives, textures, sensations and techniques; – to unite the improbable, dig into the concrete to reach the subjective.
