Biography

Maxrit is a multidisciplinary artist whose roots lie in both visual art and music. Born into a family of creatives, he began developing his artistic language early on — shaped equally by classical training in fine arts and in composition, electroacoustic, and experimental music. Educated in Linz and Vienna, he holds multiple degrees across music and the humanities.

His creative voice was deeply influenced by his close mentorship with composer Hans Werner Henze, whose guidance helped shape Maxrit’s distinct fusion of emotional depth, structure, and aesthetic clarity across all mediums.

From an early age, Maxrit was immersed in experimental science and auditory research, shaped by a childhood environment rich in brainwave studies, NLP, and hypnosis — areas explored by his father. This early exposure deeply informed his artistic voice, where experimentalism remains a core force. His work often challenges perception and consciousness, blending sound, symmetry, and frequency with a conceptual drive toward heightened awareness. 

As a multi-award-winning composer and artist, Maxrit shifted from a successful career in music to entrepreneurship, running businesses in marketing and multimedia across North America. Despite the pressures of business, his art evolved, blending impulsive yet structured line art to explore human nature, sexuality, and emotions.
