ABOUT: themes of common human experience
My work explores the way in which humans sense and navigate the world.

From an isolated country childhood, to motherhood and children’s art teacher, Marina has been called upon to make something out of nothing. She studied painting at Box Hill Tafe and Monash University and enjoyed painting trips to central Australia. She later explored ceramics at SoCA and rekindled an interest in ancient history. |

Having been consistently involved in solo and group exhibitions, Marina's practice has become more experimental, expanding from solely 2D work to sculpture and installation.
