About The Artwork
"Shell" by Maya Almeida is part of FORM - Air series. The circularity of this piece is inspired by the cyclical nature of life. The element of water reinforces this and reminds us of the endless nature of transformation An ode to minimalism. This project is a first toward abstracted, non-literal representation. A work that sets out to visually represent the essence of things. By removing the human element, form is more supple and able to exist organically in its environment. The result is that each form takes on a life of its own with the elements of light and movement moulding as they can only underwater. A true collaboration with nature. In this context, Water is co-creator. Light and density are fundamental in the creative process. That which emerges is a metaphor for nature set free… For the creative process, part of the image was captured underwater and the landscape was captured in the Atlantic Ocean in the remote Azores Islands. The image was digitally layered in Photoshop in order to combine the various elements into a unique piece.

Maya Almeida Araujo has exhibited globally and had sites structurally adapted for her pieces. She is a multidisciplinary visual artist whose practice considers art as a platform for connection. With a focus on the element of water, the work floats between the spheres of still and moving images, artistic installation, and site specific work. Navigating the confluence of nature, art and technology, her work has developed through critical engagement with her own mind and body in a way that examines fundamental questions of how human beings relate to themselves and to their environment. Adopting a unique approach to each work, Maya draws on personal experience, culture and ancient philosophy to create visceral immersive experiences. An invitation to step into an imaginary world in a way that is both sensorial and profoundly intimate. It asks how we can come together and ultimately, heal. London is home but Maya was born in Lisbon to Portuguese/Belgian/German parents. She studied Biology at Imperial College, London. Her artistic path was one of auto-didacticism with training at Central Saint Martins, with best in class equipment manufacturers and under some of the greatest image makers such as Tim Flach and Lois Greenfield. The work consistently pushes technological boundaries in search for a truer realisation of the intended experience. Recent projects have involved developing custom rigs for film-making in the open ocean, multi-screen editing at ground breaking levels of resolution, colour depth, motion, interactive animation environments and producing hyper-textured ambisonic soundscapes. All in partnership with a collective of like-minded artistic collaborators and craftspeople without losing sight of her truth.
