Maya Gilligan - Graduate

About me

Maya Gilligan uses narrative visuals paired with abstract audio in order to explore their relationship with perception and interpretation. They use disconcerting and invasive imagery in order to turn the eye back on the audience and create an experience in which onlookers can experience the claustrophobic notion of being freely observed. The presentation and content of their work invites an intimacy between artist and audience that parallels the discomfort surrounding the work. The work is designed to express and demonstrate to the audience the ache and distress the artist associates with being perceived.
