About
Marina, born in Hokkaido, Japan, focuses her artistic creations on women’s lifestyles, a theme she has named “Venus Eye.” This concept stems from her upbringing in a family centered around her mother and aunts and is deeply connected to her experiences as a mother. Additionally, her passion for the traditional festivals of Esashi in Hokkaido and her yearning for the sea have further inspired her work.
“Venus Eye” represents a divine perspective, akin to that of a goddess gazing down upon the world, capturing the beauty of both reality and fantasy. Her artworks uniquely portray women, illustrating their seamless transitions between the realms of fiction and reality, creating an aesthetic that is both authentic and transcendent.
