Bio
WitteMann’s art delves into the viewer’s emotions through the sensory qualities of materials and colour. The Artist employs recycled or building materials, transforming them into multi-sensational compositions that challenge perceptions of value and beauty.
Through repurposing debris, she confronts consumerism and materialism, encouraging reflection on sustainability and resourcefulness. Marina’s transformation of newspapers and other media challenges the hegemony of mainstream narratives, inviting viewers to examine the information they receive critically. Her exploration of personal trauma through art challenges societal norms surrounding the expression of emotions and vulnerability. By inviting viewers to engage physically with her artwork and consider multiple perspectives (“the 9/6 perspective”), Marina challenges hierarchical power structures that dictate a singular viewpoint.
Marina WitteMann was born in Moscow, Russia, currently lives and works in Germany.
