Maya Burman Artist
“I don’t have a specific theme in mind when I paint, but I have no personal reasons to be cynical and I have been told that people do tend to see a certain joy in my works.”- Maya Burman
Maya Burman (b. 1971, France) is a French artist of Indian descent who comes from a distinguished artistic lineage. Born in France, she continues the creative tradition of the Burman family, known for its contributions to Indian modern and contemporary art. Her work spans painting and mixed media, often blending lyrical figuration with subtle abstraction and a poetic sensibility.
Maya Burman’s practice connects with broader themes of identity, memory, and cultural hybridity, reflecting her experience as an artist navigating both French and Indian artistic worlds. Her compositions often feature soft palettes, flowing forms, and an introspective mood that invites contemplation. She has participated in group and solo exhibitions and her work is of interest to collectors and galleries exploring diasporic Indian art and contemporary women artists in Europe and India.
