About Marina Ogai

 
 
  • Biography

    I am a Korean artist, currently residing in the captivating landscape of South Korea. Growing up in Russia, where I was born and received my education, I was immersed in a cultural tapestry that nurtured my artistic spirit and instilled in me a profound concern for issues surrounding discrimination against women and feminist agendas.

    Throughout my artistic journey, the themes of discrimination against women, feminist agendas, and gender equality have been at the forefront of my creative process. I have witnessed firsthand the struggles faced by women in various societies and cultures, and it is my mission to use my art as a catalyst for societal transformation. With every stroke of the brush, I strive to amplify the voices of women, unravel the layers of inequality, and shed light on the remarkable strength and resilience they possess.

    Today, as I continue to evolve as an artist, I find solace and inspiration in the vibrant and diverse culture of South Korea. Drawing from the rich tapestry of my Korean heritage and the experiences gained during my time in Russia, I seek to create artworks that transcend boundaries, cultures, and languages. I aspire to bridge the gap between different societies, inviting viewers to engage with the universal struggles and triumphs of women and encouraging them to reflect on their own preconceptions and biases.
