About

Maria Kapajeva (she/her) is an artist who works between the UK and Estonia, while exhibiting her works internationally. Through her artistic practice, Kapajeva looks at the identity questions of peoples being in-between or in-transition, often bringing peripheral stories to the visible centre. Kapajeva practice is multidisciplinary: she works with found and vernacular photographic images, video installations, textile and embroidery and participatory practices.

Currently, she is doing a practice-based PhD at Estonian Academy of Arts that focuses on autotheoretical artistic practice.
