Biography

Marina Wisnik is a Brazilian singer, songwriter, actress, and writer, born in São Paulo on January 12, 1981. The daughter of renowned composer and musician José Miguel Wisnik, Marina inherited her artistic talent and forged a multifaceted path, exploring various artistic languages. Her degree in literature from USP, combined with her theatrical experience, particularly with the Companhia Uzina Uzona and at Teatro Oficina under the direction of Zé Celso Martinez Corrêa, shaped her worldview and artistic expression.

Her music career gained prominence starting in 2010, with the release of the album "Na rua agora" in 2012, which featured production by Marcelo Jeneci and Yuri Kalil and partnerships with her father, Zé Miguel Wisnik, as well as other names such as Bruna Lessa, Eric Rahal, and Thiago Pethit. The album was praised by critics and the public alike, presenting an original repertoire with intimate lyrics and sophisticated pop arrangements. In 2014, she released her second album, "Vás", produced by Alexandre Fontanetti, which explored more diverse sounds and enigmatic lyrics.

In addition to her work in music, Marina Wisnik is recognized for her literary work, especially for her books of palindromes, such as "SÓS", published in 2013. Her art moves between words, mathematics, and visuality, with some of her palindromes becoming part of the collection of the Museum of the Portuguese Language. Marina also works as an art educator, teaching poetry creation workshops and participating in cultural projects, establishing herself as a complete and influential artist in the contemporary Brazilian scene.
