About Maiti

I am a native of Hamburg, but have lived in the country for 30 years. I live with my partner in an incredibly cozy cottage apartment in an old farmhouse. For a couple of yearsam I am a PR representative for a socio-cultural association in Hamburg and love attending concerts there. Otherwise, I'm more of an introvert and need a lot of peace and quiet. My partner and I are little nerds and every Sunday is Hobbit day with a big breakfast (and a second one), painting, reading, playing and walking. I enjoy watching classic films and playing Geoguesser with my best friend. I share a passion for writing with my other best friend and am trying to write a ghost detective story in Ireland. I love singing to myself, unfortunately I bake far too rarely and dream about it, one day to have a small house with a big garden and to be in nature a lot.

What does art mean to me?

Painting came to me naturally when I was small and it stayed. This is how I expressed myself, processed feelings, showed love, joy, anger and despair. Over the last 20 years I have gotten to know and experienced the different faces and sides of art and every single experience has become a part of my soul. 

Since the beginning of 2020, my anxiety disorder, which has always been latent with me, became very strong and a large part of my life. Along with nature, art was what distracted, calmed and sometimes healed me in dark hours. 

Art is always the opportunity for me to heal myself and at the same time show part of my soul. 

Very often when I am in nature, I am so overwhelmed by its beauty and magic that I feel like I want to send a little bit of my soul back into the universe. I would like to let people share my view of the world, because I often experience that mindfulness, slowness and gratitude are forgotten. But I also want to be understood and seen.
