Maia Bold

Maia Bold is a contemporary artist with an interesting brush stroke that reminds of impressionism. The remarkable self-reflections are subtle, sensitive and bold at the same time.

Her art can make you feel uncomfortable and it makes you experience “instant feelings upon viewing the works”. “What’s striking is how many people she struck, making them feel the “oh-so-familiar” feeling of anxiety”…“the tension suffered by the body, the squeezing, the pain…the way she clutches herself…the desperation is vivid”.

“The brush stroke feels like a dizzying whirlpool draining down forever.” “The colors bring to mind words like disease and sickness” and the works remind of Lucian Freud and Jenny Saville.
