Maria’s practice is a sustained inquiry into the choreography of belief — how it is performed, enforced, and aestheticized across religious, political, and cultural spheres. She explores the tension between transcendence and control, engaging with religious heritage as both a metaphysical force and an instrument of earthly power. Drawing on iconographic traditions, she examines the lasting impact of spiritual and ideological systems on individuals and society.
