Martin Parr x Maya Golyshkina

Description

Maya Golyshkina is a London-based multimedia artist working in self-portraiture, performance, and sculpture. Guided by the idea that “the best way to get rid of pain is to laugh at it,” Golyshkina creates fantastical and dissonant self-portraits in which she embodies anthropomorphic versions of everyday objects-ranging from a tube of toothpaste to a fried egg or an ear-blurring the line between object and self.

Following in the lineage of Claude Cahun, Cindy Sherman, and Gillian Wearing, she uses her body to challenge stereotypes and interrogate identity in a social media-driven, image-obsessed world. Her handcrafted, deliberately imperfect aesthetic, combined with traces of digital manipulation, rejects polish in favor of authenticity and surreal wit.
