Asunto: Spotlight-detained performers and art censorship
On 15 and 19 April 2019, members of the Myanmar thangyat troupe–a satirical poetry group–Daung Doh Myo Sat (Peacock Generation) were arrested for wearing military costumes in a performance they later live-streamed on Facebook. A further two members were later arrested
Freemuse Executive Director Dr Srirak Plipat said, "The imprisoned members of Peacock Generation are entitled to the right to exercise their art as a vehicle for expression–including criticising authorial powers and holding them to account. We call on the Myanmar authorities and the Mayangone Township Court to release the five members and drop all current charges."
This use of legislation to silence artists and artistic expression deeply impacts the human rights of those in Myanmar and has the potential to leave long-term damage on the state of culture, art and artistic expression in the country.
