Marina George

Marina George is a contemporary visual artist known for her evocative exploration of memory, nature, and personal mythologies through mixed media painting and installation. Born in 1987 in Toronto, Canada, Marina developed an early fascination with the landscapes and cultural stories of her multicultural upbringing. She studied Fine Arts at OCAD University, where she began blending traditional painterly techniques with unconventional materials such as textiles, found objects, and digital processes.

Marina’s work often meditates on the intersection of the natural world with inner emotional landscapes, resulting in pieces that draw viewers into moments of quiet reflection and vivid storytelling. She has exhibited in solo and group shows throughout Canada, the United States, and Europe, earning recognition for her ability to translate intimate experiences into universal, tactile imagery. In addition to her studio practice, Marina is an active arts educator, frequently leading workshops and community mural projects that foster creative engagement and inclusivity.

Her ongoing body of work continues to evolve as she investigates themes of impermanence, migration, and the layering of histories within personal and collective identities.
