Maii likes to capture movement, colour, tones and shades. She enjoys capturing moments and sharing stories about causes she believes in through art portraiture photography. Fashion has always been her method of calming her anxiety and discovering who she is and what she wants to express in her body. Besides art photography, she enjoys editorial, urban exploring, street photography, and portrait-style photography. She is an entity that synergizes with her model and concept to find a comfortable middle that makes the photoshoot more enjoyable than a transaction. Maii comes from a closed-minded family who treats her differently due to her sexuality as a genderfluid transwoman. She enjoys forming bonds with strangers who eventually become friends and her chosen family. Robert Mapplethorpe’s works greatly influenced Maii as a Photographer. His rawness inspires her, his audacity to break down conventions and spark conversations with subjects that are considered taboo in the heteronormative society.
I'm merely a pause in time, a fragment and an entity. I'm a voyeur of moments and a storyteller for the voiceless. I thrive on telling stories from my heart to my eyes and my eyes through my lens. I strive to break down toxic masculinity and give voices to my LGBTQ+ community and support the causes I believe in. Composition, colour, perspective and tones, and performance art drive and motivate my work toward perfection. I aspire to cultivate emotions and stories through a visual narrative like my favourite gay Photographer Robert Mapplethorpe.
