EVA MUELLER IS IMMORTAL
Eva Mueller came to IMMORTAL the way some people walk into a storm: fully dressed, totally intentional, and a little thrilled by the danger.
In this new interview from IMMORTAL (Día de Muertos, CDMX), Eva (NYC) admits what a lot of us won’t say out loud: she wanted Day of the Dead her whole life—so when TBQA built a queer art fair inside that ritual season, she said count me in before the ink was dry.
And then she arrived with work that blindsided me—in the best way.
Eva’s series “Vivir Muriendo” (living while dying) was made fast (deadlines: the great queer aphrodisiac). Skeletons, skulls, six characters, all her—channeled, embodied, performed with collaborator Anna Augustin (costumes, looks, and yes… the heart). Under the camp and the spectacle is the real question: am I ready for death? And the sharper one: how do I want to live while I’m still here?
Her definition of queer is clean and deadly accurate: not a rigid binary, not just who you sleep with—an umbrella of identity, tribe, home, and freedom. The opposite of “straight” isn’t “gay.” It’s permission.
Also: she’s wearing a giant bone-phallus in the interview, so please don’t pretend this is a tasteful PBS moment. This is queer culture. It has teeth. And props.
Now live on Substack (video + feature), Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and our socials.
And yes—we’re inviting new artists into 2026.
