Marina Orlova
Marina Orlova examines the fragile relationship between the body, freedom, and the systems of power that seek to control both.
My art exists where beauty meets discomfort, where the sacred collides with the profane, and where power leaves its marks on the human body. Through painting, mixed media, and performance, I explore femininity, religion, sexuality, and the absurdity of social control. Rooted in personal memory and cultural contradictions, my work challenges what we are taught to worship, fear, and obey.
I don't create to comfort. I create to confront.
