“Maya’s art is a breathtaking act of resistance that is inspiring countless women of color across our region.”
-Edmonds-Woodway High School Black Student Union
Art is not just a creative outlet, but a profound means of communication, self expression, and activism. My mission is to create art that fosters a transformative space where ALL can envision lives beyond the confines of existing structures, while also creating art that explores the depths of peace. I draw inspiration from human connection, consciousness, and the vast universe, with a style that incorporates elements of Pop Art. Placing us in positions that reveal the inherent beauty and extraordinary power within us all.
Accepting my award at the Capitol.
Maya has embraced art as a powerful and transformative force throughout her journey as a professional multimedia artist. As a Black woman living with a chronic illness, she found that art became more than just a creative outlet—it became a way to build meaningful connections. Driven by a passion for unity and self-discovery, Maya’s work seeks to bridge societal divides and, most importantly, uplift and empower Women of Color. Through her art, she amplifies stories of resilience, fosters spaces for empowerment, and inspires unity and change.
