Nomad Patterns

This artwork featured in The Precious Clay (2019).

Marin’s work seems to be positioned indeterminately between something that is about to collapse, or has just been restored; between things that have been invested with the attention of care but also have the appearance of a ruin. Her artworks reflect on the rules dictated by the contemporary marketplace – where standardisation dominates – and its influence over familiar objects. “I mostly use themes such as serialisation, repetition and estrangement of what is familiar in my artwork. In this respect, I have a particular interest in the every day life, specifically in the material objects that give shape to it.”
