Sirya is a very young talented artist with Vietnamese origins. She was born in Turin on January 23rd, 2002, she has been practising artistic gymnastics the age of four. She has already achieved very good results both in Italy and internationally, also in circus arts and particularly in aerial acrobatics.
Sirya, together with her family, is a street artist: she dances, acts and amuses passers-by with her amazing acrobatics. Sirya became aware very quickly that being an artist is really what she wants to be in her life. What she desires most is “delivering” her art in the streets, theatres, circuses of the whole world, with the aim of making people smile. When she was nine, she took part in the second edition of the Italian television program “Italia’s Got Talent”. After having gone through all the preliminary steps she eventually got to the final. Sirya, thanks to this television program lept to fame for some time and this gave her the possibility to meet important people in this field.
Recently, Sirya was admitted into “L’Accademia di Arte Circense” in Verona, where she attended with very good results. Despite her young age she decided to take on a big challenge, and moved to a new and far away town, miles away from her family, though she still managed to often meet her sister Nicole and her mother Marja for street art events.
Sirya’s specialised in different fields: acrobatics, handstand, aerial, dance and contortion. She has also taken part in the 2013 “European Juggling Convention” in Toulouse, as a juggling performer.
Sirya is young but a very determined artist, very mature for her age, but above all, very sensitive towards those who are less lucky then herself. In fact, The “Tip hat” money, apart from little expenses, goes entirely to local charities in Vietnam, where Sirya lived and performed for a year and had the opportunity to witness poverty and misery and to support the project "Il Sogno di Marja".
Sirya is ambitious: her dream is to develop her skills as an artist and eventually join a big company like the “Cirque du Soleil”. This will also hopefully enable her to help, in a more substantial way, her Vietnamese friends.
