Maris is an interdisciplinary artist from Massachusetts, USA who combines digital and traditional weaving practices with painting to build tapestries that explore memory and history. She works with textiles and paint together, using thread as a drawing material that can be used to create woven images. She has exhibited in the USA and Europe, including shows at the U. S. Capitol Building (Washington, DC), NADA New York (New York, NY), the RISD Museum (Providence, RI), the Kennedy Center (Washington, DC), the Icelandic Textile Center (Blönduós, Iceland), and Superhouse (New York, NY). 

To celebrate UNESCO’s World Art Day on April 15, 2026, SÍM Residency produced a short series of interviews with artists in residence in March 2026.

The Association of Icelandic Visual Artists (SÍM) is a partner of the IAA.​
