Maria May
On 8 July 2025 by Deej_Fabyc1Maria May is an emerging Irish Swedish Visual Artist working mainly in installation, live
performance, video, and mixed media collage. Found objects and discarded materials are often
repurposed and reimagined through cutting, tearing, and stitching. The practice centers on
humans as part of a bigger whole and is constantly evolving in a search for interconnectedness
and the sacredness found in nature and community. After many years of being a carer for her
neurodivergent daughter, May is delighted to be pursuing a lifelong dream of exploring the world
of art and its potential impact on our changing societal structures. She is pursuing collaborative
projects and opportunities.
Based in the West of Ireland since 2004, May holds a 1st Class BA(Hons) degree in Fine Art and is
in the process of obtaining an MA in Creative Practice, both from Atlantic Technological
University Sligo. Her first Solo Exhibition is due to take place in the Ballinglen Arts Foundation’s
Gallery in Ballycastle, County Mayo, in early 2026.
