MACBA Barcelona or the Barbican Center. He has already worked with greats such as Patti Smith, Lee Ranaldo or Fennesz and impresses with his sensual, tactile, abstract images, which are perfectly matched to the sounds of the respective musicians.At the Elevate Festival, Maia will present the AV show "Unnder the Sun" together with Maya Shenfeld - dense sound textures meet Super 8 film and drone footage.
