ABOUT THE ARTIST

Maya is an award-winning interdisciplinary artist whose
work explores the unseen through moving image, light, and sound. Her creations transcend a single reality—
immersive experiences that focus less on what is seen and more on what is sensed.

Drawing on her background in biology and her fascination with the underwater world, Maya develops installations and fine art that merge space, rhythm, and technology into poetic, otherworldly forms. Her practice often involves collaboration with architects, stage and light designers, animators, and composers, creating works that reveal the invisible connections uniting life.

Maya’s work is held in public and private collections worldwide and has been featured in international exhibitions, publications, and collaborations with organizations such as the English National Ballet, Akram Khan Dance Company, Lisbon Oceanarium, and the Nureyev Medical Foundation. Highlights include the 2020 premiere of ONE in Lisbon - a site-specific immersive installation blending ambisonic sound, multi-projector 11k visuals, and custom-engineered underwater lighting - along with features in Creative Review, Egoísta, and a special edition of the New York Times/Sabado on ocean conservation.
