Maya Hayuk
Hayuk's paintings, prints, drawings and photographs can range from tender mockeries of idealized social rituals such as hot tubbing or undressing, to transcendent portrayals of geometries giving way to nature. She was raised by Ukrainian immigrant parents in a Wonderbread suburb of Baltimore, converting to punk rock at an early age. After extensive travel throughout the US, Europe, U.S.S.R. and Northern Africa, Maya earned a BFA in Conceptual Art, New Genres and Philosophy studying in Boston, Toronto and Odessa, Ukraine. She has shown her paintings in SF, LA, NY, Tokyo, London, Paris, Seattle, Portland, Raleigh and Baltimore, and lives between San Francisco and Brooklyn.
