Photography by Maya Beano

Sep 11, 2015

Maya is a young research scientist based in Cambridge, UK. Her spectacular images are timeless, romantic and mysterious at the same time, transforming travels and adventures with friends into strong visual narratives. Her work deals with the ideas of solitude and nostalgia: “I get overwhelmed at the thought of leaving a beautiful place behind, and I try to portray that strong sense of nostalgia in my photos. I am greatly moved by timeless landscapes, and I find myself missing these places before I have even left them (hence why my work might appear romantic and solitary).”
