Hello. My name is Maze. This is what I look like:
Maze (spirit)
Image description: A sketch with black pen and cross hatched shading on a slighlty gray-beige background. There is a gender-ambiguous human with short curly hair squatting on a cross hatched line that indicates a floor. The person’s body is somewhat misshapen with unrealistic proportions and a feral look in their eyes. One eye points down and the other is higher on the forehead point up to the left. They are smiling slightly:)
Maze (face)
Image description: My face and shoulders with low lighting. I have tan colored skin, dark hair with loose curls that is cut short on the sides. I am smiling big, my head tilted up a bit towards the camera. I am wearing dangly silver earrings and a knitted sweater with a biege collar. You can vaguely see some drawing on my chest and a drawing taped to the wall behind me.
I am a farmer, organizer, and artist. For more than a decade, visual art has been my healing and neuroqueer refuge. My art attempts to visualize the entanglement between human bodyminds and ecological bodyminds (centered on trans, mad, disabled, diasporic, afab, multiracial bodyminds because that’s what I am). From the expressive reaching of trees to the river ripples that mirror the patterns behind my eyes, I explore the enmeshment of life through the shared visual patterns that everyone is made of.
