Maya Rochat

Water is Coming
24.10.2024 – 23.02.2025

In the Fall, Photo Elysée extends a carte blanche to Swiss visual artist Maya Rochat. Through her artistic endeavors, she deftly engages with images, skillfully superimposing and manipulating them to craft vibrant and saturated visual montages, which she presents as distinctive, textured installations. Maya Rochat's creative exploration spans photography, painting, installation, and performance. Whether working in situ, within or beyond conventional institutions, her work manifests an artistic fascination with organic language expressed through diverse media—be it analog or digital, figurative or abstract, printed or in motion.
