Maya Hayda
Dzimis 1998
Maya Hayda is a curator, writer, and art historian. She has worked with Artists Space, Canal Projects, Frappant, and PS122 Gallery, and participated as a curator in residence at CASA GIAP and Fabrica. She has written for The Wattis Institute, LA Review of Books, FLAT Journal, Public Parking, and The Drawing Center.
Her research explores materiality, poetics, and extraction, particularly across Eastern Europe and the Global South. Her practice examines and activates art as an interdisciplinary framework that contends with and catalyzes relations between matter, media, and broader ecologies.
She is a member of the curatorial group and research laboratory Collective Rewilding, holds a degree in Art History and English from Wesleyan University, and is pursuing her PhD in Art History at Princeton University.
