Hi, I’m Marina 👋🏼 — a multidisciplinary artist born and bred in the Bay with strong Hawaiian roots, now living in NYC.

With a background in visual arts, I enjoy storytelling through a variety of platforms, including art direction, mixed media, photography, design and fine arts.

Current obsessions include sewing, 3D modeling and animation, bulgarian split squats, CineStill 800T film, and rug tufting.

Chronic obsessions include Austrian painters, 2D and stop motion animation, copic markers, color theory, and expression through cartoon.
