فنان سعودي وباحث ومستكشف من مواليد سنة 1984. بعد حصوله على درجة البكالوريوس في الإدارة البيئية والتنمية المستدامة من جامعة بوند في جولد كوست، أستراليا، عاد معاذ إلى مسقط رأسه في المدينة المنورة، حيث واجه صدمة ثقافية أجبرته على التكيف والإلتفات إلى الإبداع، لذلك كان التصوير الفوتوغرافي آليته لتخطي الصدمة. وبدأ رحلة توثيق فوتوغرافي في العام 2013، مع التركيز على القطع الأثرية الثقافية والتراث والكنوز المخفية، وقد توسع منذ ذلك الحين ليشمل توثيق واستكشاف منطقة المدينة المنورة الكبرى، في كل من مناطقها الطبيعية والعمرانية، لتتوسع استكشافاته الفنية بعد ذلك لتشمل كافة مناطق المملكة العربية السعودية.
وقد عُرضت أعماله الفنية في الشرق الأوسط وشمال أفريقيا وجنوب آسيا. كما تمت دعوته للإشراف على عدة معارض مثل “جسور إلى سيول” في سيول خلال زيارة ولي العهد محمد بن سلمان في عام 2019 و”نافثا” في جدة من قِبل وزارة الثقافة في العام 2019. وهو مؤسس الاستوديو الفني”Al Mthba”، وهو يعيش ويعمل في الرياض.
