Grüezi and Hello

My name is Matthias Maier and I am a visual artist based in Basel, Switzerland and New York City.

I make art because it makes me happy and I want to share this happiness with you through my artworks. My work includes painting, photography, cyanotype, screen printing and digital fine art printing as well as collage.

Creativity is a journey, not a destination.

    Change of season

    A week between September and October, sunshine and rain, healthy and with a cold. In short, a week of changes.

    With art against the gray

    The first autumnal week was an attunement to the coming months and if it hadn’t been for the art, it would have been totally lost in the gray.
