A renowned and multilayered artist, Maya Schweizer uses a wide variety of media and materials:  experimental video art, sound collages, embroideries or expansive installations.
Her cinematic works revolve around questions of history, identity and memory. Urban spaces as interfaces of individual and collective modes of action are often the starting point of her observation. In her perception of these places and spaces, she uncovers social realities, inscribed narratives and overlapping histories.
