Marina Timm
Born in Russia and based in Los Angeles, Marina Timm creates original works on paper as well as designs for commercial projects.
Observing and contemplating the world and the madness of our interconnected daily lives makes him want to create another universe made of an assemblage of arbitrary shapes, shades and textures.
The artist has chosen collage as his favourite medium because it resembles a puzzle with unlimited assemblages. The practice of bringing together unrelated elements to produce a coherent piece helps her to explore and understand complex human interactions.
Her main influences are the artists of the Russian avant-garde such as Malevich and Rodchenko, as well as the Dadaist movement of post-war Europe. Their aesthetic and opposing views on what art is and should be have long been a source of fascination for Marina.
