Marina Mardas aka Sainte Marina is a Paris-born/based Lebanese transdisciplinary artist. Graduated with a MRes of Sociology, she develops her career as a self-taught artist since 2018.
Her universe is often a mix of deeply dark undeeworlds, that seem to reflect on a fantasized version of reality that translates common feelings throughout our human lives, and very luminous flashy colors.
Her projects are always taking life into different forms which have included : video, photography, sculpture, installation, ethnography, writing and sound production. All of which serve to reflect complementary part of her multi-sensorial world. She allies classical white-cube exhibitions with more unconvential places to show her pieces and merges her visual practice with her music practice.
