Maisel utilizes site-informed materials to create sculpture, collage, and photographic objects, which serve as venues for contemplation about the materials themselves. His work subverts expectations of photographic space and the viewer’s visual literacy as as a way to question assumed structures. He received his MFA from California College of the Arts in San Francisco, and his Bachelors of Science in Psychology from McGill University in Montreal. Solo exhibitions include Chiquita Room in Barcelona, Gregory Lind Gallery in San Francisco, Shulamit Nazarian in Los Angeles, and Document in Chicago. His work has also been exhibited at the William Benton Museum in Connecticut; The University of New Mexico in Taos; and DeCordova Museum in Massachusetts. His book Two Concrete Things published with Chiquita Ediciones received the Arts Libris-Fundació Banc Sabadell Award in 2021. Maisel lives and works in San Francisco.
