About the Artist 

​

Marina Volk paints in the language of paradox — where devotion meets desire, and myth bleeds into the modern.

Her neo-baroque works explore the theatre of emotion: saints and archetypes reborn in a digital age that worships its own reflection.

Each painting becomes both confession and rebellion — a mirror where irony and sincerity coexist.

Trained by experience rather than institution, Marina’s path flows from the tactile intimacy of tattooing to the vast stillness of oil on canvas. Through flesh and pigment alike, she searches for truth inside beauty, and beauty inside truth.

​

Living and working in Alberta, Canada, she invites viewers into an underworld of feeling — a place where sensitivity is not weakness but strength, and art becomes a form of awakening.
