Lot 118: Maya Hayuk "love grows like", 2007 ink gouache and

Maya Hayuk "love grows like", 2007 ink gouache and wood stain on wood panel 300mm x 300mm x 25mm Known for her elaborate, colourful and often humorous imagery, Brooklyn based artist Maya Hayuk, utilises an unpredictable matrix of sources, mediums to deliver works ranging from massive wall murals to intricate drawings on paper. Solo exhibitions and collaborations with the Barnstormer collective (think Doze Green, David Ellis and Kenji Hirate) have bought Maya accolades as a prolific contemporary artist in both the urban and fine art world. Often using tender geometries that appear to give way or transcend into the organic, Maya's work points to an evolving portrayal of love and the human condition. Holding a Batchelor of Fine Arts in conceptual art, interrelated media and philosophy, Maya travels and exhibits extensively. www.blkmrktgallery.com, www.juxtapoz.com, www,b-stormers.com/artists, www.revision3.com/xlr8rtv/hayuk
