Maya took the audience through a journey of her public art practice and the inspiration for how she creates. Maya ended her talk with her latest and most controversial piece, describing how this painting is, to date, the one that she’s most proud of. Maya is an Ukrainian-American artist best known for her extensive and generative range of art and social practices which circle the globe. Her massively-scaled, improvised murals speak to the artist’s obsession with “the perfect imperfection of a trust fall”. Maya considers her studio painting, printmaking and mural practices as inversely relational and symbiotic. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
