Hildy Maze

Hildy Maze is an American artist with Turkish,Russian, Austrian heritage. Born in Brookyn,NY she received a BFA from Pratt Institute. For many years Hildy lived and worked in her loft in Tribecca, NYC before moving to East Hampton Long Island, NY where she currently works and lives. Her work is influenced by her 25 year study and practice of Tibetan Buddhist meditation involving the recognition of the basic nature of mind that is intrinsic, clear empty awareness. Mind is already complete and perfect.
Hildy’s work visually investigates and plays with how we obscure our recognition of these intrinsic qualities of mind. The provocative titles help to create an attentive environment. Ms.Maze has exhibited her work in NYC,Long Island City, Brooklyn, California, Bejing, China and on the Eastern End of Long Island She has won numerous awards and is in several private collections in the U.S, Europe and Asia.
