About Alexa Maithé
Alexa Maithé is a multidisciplinary artist and designer born in Honduras, Central America. Since the age of seventeen, she has explored visual arts alongside philosophy and music, driven by a deep curiosity about life, mythologies, ancestral knowledge, and the unseen dimensions of human experience. Her work emerges from an intuitive and spiritual approach to creation, seeking to reconnect with what she believes modern society has gradually forgotten: our relationship with nature, memory, and inner awareness.
Her practice moves fluidly between painting, drawing, sculpture, assemblage, digital art, interior and product design, DJing, experimental sound, and performance. Rather than limiting herself to a single medium, Maithé approaches creativity as an evolving language where different disciplines interact and inform one another.
Trained in interior and product design in Florence, Italy, she brings a strong sensitivity to space, proportion, and materiality into her artistic work. For her, art and design are not merely decorative practices, but tools for creating emotional, sensory, and symbolic experiences. Her creative process is guided by observation, intuition, and symbolism, allowing ideas to develop organically rather than through rigid structures.
An essential aspect of Maithé’s practice is material transformation. Many of her works incorporate repurposed and found materials, integrating discarded or overlooked objects into mixed-media assemblages and paintings. Through this process she reimagines the value of forgotten materials, restoring presence, narrative, and new life to what once appeared insignificant. This approach reflects both ecological awareness and a philosophical interest in transformation.
Having lived and created across Honduras, Italy, Germany, Portugal, Guatemala, and Alaska, her work maintains an ongoing dialogue between cultures, landscapes, and symbolic traditions, shaping a perspective that is both globally informed and seeking root within.
Music has always been a central part of her path. She began DJing in 2011 within underground creative scenes in Honduras and later performed in artistic festivals and cultural spaces in Italy. Today she continues exploring sound through curated DJ sets, experimental collaborations, and original compositions. In 2025, she completed her first long-form sonic work — a 34-minute composition exploring the cycles of birth, life, death, and return.
Across disciplines, Maithé’s work seeks to inspire people to be bold, to feel deeply, to live authentically, and to integrate wisdom traditions from around the world into contemporary life. Through her practice, she invites others to reconnect with nature, imagination, and conscious living beyond fast-paced and consumption-driven culture.
