Director | Production Designer | Producer based in NYC
Maya is an Irish-Indonesian director and production designer. Her work is bold, textured, and often playful, earning her recognition as the next ‘rising star’ by BFFF and an oustanding ‘emerging talent’ by LFFF.
​
Coming from a background in the arts, she’s known for crafting richly detailed, stylized worlds where every element from costume to camera movement works in harmony.
​
Whether on set or in development, Maya’s work is all about shaping feeling through form and finding beauty in the unexpected. Her debut narrative is currently on its festival run, and she's now expanding her commercial work with the same magnetic visual language.
